Tomorrow, When We Wake

by Okay Alright

I woke up The sun was bright I saw your face catch the light I'm moving on Yeah I'll follow through What I really need Is to stay with you So I walk downstairs Where I found my life In the skin you shed In the tears you dried Now I'm feeling sick The clock just ticks The way I'll be broke only you could fix But times a lie And I'm not surprised When you survive And I'm drowning But I love your eyes Like stars in the sky long as I'm alive They’re there to guide me I see you in everything beautiful

Human 03:20
The sweet sorrow of this so called disarray I'm as blissful as a broken poets dream It happens like that, Or so they say Change my thoughts in different ways But with these bleeding parts of my body scattered out in the garden only helps these flowers grow, brighter So how can I say that I'm not swayed by you How can I say that I'm not swayed by the sky tonight I'm alive and I feel my skin torn apart again Seeing every inch of this fucked up mess Called human But with these bleeding parts of my body scattered out in the garden only helps these flowers grow, brighter

You can stay here Yeah that's alright with me And you can borrow my heart If that's what you need We can lie here Get lost in what we read Keep the lights down So we can fall asleep In the morning we will make some tea Watch from the windows As the sun cuts through our tree I've made up my mind Although I cant believe That the love I give to you matches the love you give to me We'll stay inside tonight So Lie by my side And I will say the things That I believed when we were young Will you marry me I don't wanna be Anywhere that I can't see your face Feels so out of place And Along the way You told me yesterday Was the greatest night of your life Sometimes it's so hard To think that when we wake You won't be there To save me from this pain So I will stay here Cause that is what I need This stack of postcards Is all that's left of me I will hold out For the day you call my name I am waiting Just to let you in You'll be so far away And that's something that we can't change But darling it'll be okay In a few years time Yeah you'll be mine And we will stay in bed I think i need that I think I need that I think I need that I think I need that I think I need that We'll stay inside tonight So Lie by my side And I will say the things That I believed when we were young Will you marry me I don't wanna be Anywhere that I can't see your face Feels so out of place And Along the way You told me yesterday Was the greatest night of your life

Lighthouse 02:54
I miss San Francisco in the summer I'd like to take you there I Still hear your voice as a whisper still taste you in the air I miss the mountains in Colorado The path we didn't take Please keep my heart with you I can't stand to feel it ache I miss winter nights in Boston The wind at our door Reading a book by the fire Under a blanket on the floor These lights up above us Made plans for us both To keep our hands together Even when we are not close And our lives in late September Won't be defined by what we lose But by the people that surround us And the love that we both choose By the people that surround us And the love that we both choose I am coming home to find you Even After this great change Hope to god I can remind you Every time I speak your name That we were made for each other And That'll always be enough To trust in something stronger Than the home that your ghost haunts These lights up above us Made plans for us both To keep our hands together Even when we are not close And our lives in late September Won't be defined by what we lose But by the people that surround us And the love that we both choose By the people that surround us And the love that we both choose I miss that old lighthouse The one that saved my life I got swept into the ocean But I was guided by Its light And when I made it back I took a breath on my own You looked me in the eyes And you said that we were home

Saving another one for tonight Killing my lover If that's alright All that i am And all that this is Is just another reason Reason to live Who am i And who are you I can't take this pressure From under you All that i ask Please take your time I cannot keep you From whatever's mine I'm sorry for the chaos That's in my mind It wears me out It wears me out
6.
I am leaving tomorrow I’ll be gone when you wake And though I hope that you’ll follow All I know is I can’t stay You’ve got work out on the east coast I know it seems so far away darling I will take you with me I’d drive home just to see your face I don’t wanna leave without you It’s so much safer in this town But darling, I’ll grow up if I have to If it means I can keep you around I don’t wanna leave without you I need you to hold me down But darling, I’ll grow up if I have to If it means I can keep you around I will call you tomorrow Once I get through today And I know you share this sorrow I know you feel this weight I don’t wanna leave without you It’s so much safer in this town But darling, I’ll grow up if I have to If it means I can keep you around I don’t wanna leave without you I need you to hold me down But darling, I’ll grow up if I have to If it means I can keep you around

Once in my thoughts I ponder the kisses of the sweet moon In the nights air what could I do behind the trees From my skin you came my heavy love My sun and stars you make me believe in god You make me believe in god God screams out of every rose You say its things he'd never know He says we should go

about

This album is about pursuing the things you love and holding onto them as tight as you can. For me, It's a reminder that tomorrow will be okay. I've just gotta get through today.

Recorded in my basement over the summer of 2018. Headed to California in the Fall. This album is for my family, friends, and everyone I'm gonna miss at home. Here's a piece of my life. Thanks for listening :).
