Every Once in a While

Unwind the key
Don't make the bed
Just try to sleep
Take what you can get

Day after day into night after night
Too hard to break

Every once in a while, it's okay if you smile
And it's just as okay if you don't
No one will know how you counted the miles
Or if you have something to show
And if you try hard enough
The world will fight back enough
To take back the things that you earned
Take time to look back on what you learned
Every once in a while

All the small things
Some of the best
Nothing too easy
Nothing too set

Day after day into night after night
Always the same

Every once in a while, it's okay if you smile
And it's just as okay if you don't
No one will know how you counted the miles
Or if you have something to show
And if you try hard enough
The world will fight back enough
To take back the things that you earned
Take time to look back on what you learned
Every once in a while

What do you say when the words don't matter anymore?
What do you do when you have nothing for the world?
Tell them a lie, show a surprise
No one will know if you don't turn the light on and
Walk through the dark
With no fuel to spark up some new hope
It's okay to be alone
Every once in a while
