It's alright and it's okay
The actors have a script
the orchestra follows their score.
The captain follows his charts and maps
the crew they follow orders.
It's expected to go smoothly when things are done this way.
It's alright, everything's bright and the plans turn out okay.
On a chance we sail uncharted
the characters improvise their play.
We set our minds on what we hope to find
and hear that in the music we play.
Sailing fog and darkness, shine a light where we hope to be
then go forth with confidence, it's alright and it's okay.
It's okay and it's alright to shine that light inside.
The actors have found no audience around
the band has stopped playing.
I shall bite back on the sadness, fight the urge to sail away.
Take a step back, let the feelings relax
it's alright and it's okay.
