I Am Okay

Dear Future brandon I'm Doing the best that I can I've been working on being less of a jerk I try to surround myself with people Think good thoughts when I'm alone Give compliments when I can Talk in a happy tone Cause no one likes a sad guy No one it's when you're depressed No one likes a sad guy I would like someone to like me again someday Dear Future Brandon Know I had a hand in Making you the man you are today That girl is really cute I'm happy that she is with you Your life is going well You're happy as hell Don't let it go to waste You know what you're supposed to do Keep that head up and keep searching for the truth Don't do things that you know are wrong Even if you want to Make it a war Between the corners of your lips To see who can stay up the longest Go throw out all you Black jackets Wear colorful clothes Buy some goofy ties Get rid of those grey coats They're weighing you down Dear current Brandon Know this isn't the end You're as happy As you want yourself to be Brush the dust off that smile Do something good

Pink 02:15
I know your doors always open When I am feeling low You've got this eager smile and the innocence of a child I haven't felt that way in quite a while So it's refreshing to see I wish your smile could be on me You said you're sick of sad melodies Well I'm sick of them too You said you're sick of sad melodies Well I'm sick of them too That's why I'm writing this song about you You think pinks the best color You're wrong the best color is blue but I'll forgive you Because we both hate the dentist but I probably hate him more The last time that I saw him was in 2004 I said I'm going vegetarian And all you did was grin Bring back the joy That I see in your eyes Bring back the hope I need it in my life Bring back the dreams That I've let run away Bring back the smiles For at least one day

Moon 05:00
I watched my sky go black I thought the sun was never coming back Then you grabbed my hand In the dark of night And you told me things are going to be alright You were my moon When things were bad When the only color I could see The only color was black You were my moon I hope that someday I can be that for you. All my friends were the stars but you my moon All these dark times, you walked me through You said One day, the sun will come back to you I asked when? You said whenever you want it to. I watched the sunrise today I watched the dark sky go away 30 days of night Turned into 4 long years of fruitless life Safe to say I'm feeling alright If you're sun goes down I'll be there for you

Indian Star 03:05
I can't be the only one who thought 3 circles an Indian star on the wrapper of a tootsie pop Guaranteed me a free lifetime supply of all the suckers I could ever want Oh what we used to believe Oh we were so naïve Oh I'm growing up Oh I'm growing up White cows make white milk Brown cows make chocolate milk But then where the hell Do we get strawberry milk? Kissing makes you pregnant Chicken pox turn you into a chicken Inside every traffic light Theres a tiny man who makes the lights start switching If I swallow an apple seed An apple grows inside of me All the ATM money Is free Holding a shell up to your ear Allowed you to hear the ocean If I prayed a little prayer God would take away my sin Oh what we used to believe Oh we were so naïve Oh No, I'm growing up Oh No, I'm growing up

Wind 04:13
Stares down long hallways To see if you're home The answer is no But I'll be fine It's just one of those day's where I walk around outside Just loving life and smiling at the sky Trying to figure why people hate the things I like I love the wind It's a constant reminder that the world is moving I love the wind I could stick my head out this window till tomorrow I love the wind It makes me feel like there's something bigger Is there something bigger than me I love the wind I love where it's going, I love where it's been I love how it keeps moving No matter what's in front of it I love how it pushes around people That are stuck doing things their own way I love the wind for the same reasons That I love the waves I love repetition I love things that are powerful I love laying in the ocean Letting the waves take control Of me Pull me out to sea I love dark caves When the sun has gone down When my flashlight is dead And there's no one around I love the feeling of getting lost And the thought of being found I like quick sinking sand That sucks me through the ground Sunrise to sunset I try my best not to forget That I'm not the only thing here There's something more to life That I'm determined to find

Some Things 03:34
Usually I try my best to be strong Keep my head up and carry on I can still be happy about my life Right now is one of those times But other times I just miss the nights we had Cause I know that they're never coming back Some things you'll miss Some things you'll miss even more Some things you'll love Some things you'll adore Some things you'll lose Some things you'll never find Some things you'll have To leave behind I miss having friends I miss having someone who cared I miss believing in a god I miss my stupid parents I miss beating up my brothers I miss hockey in the streets I miss large coke slurpees I miss climbing up tall trees I knew there was things I'd have to kiss goodbye I just never thought I would lose myself Some things you'll miss Some things you'll miss even more Some things you'll love Some things you'll adore Some things you'll lose Some things you'll never find Some things you'll have To leave behind I will learn to leave behind

about

6 songs recorded in 6 days.

"I Am Okay" is a reference to Better Promises recently released record, "I Am Not Okay". Sometimes sequels are great and sometimes they are Cars 2. Maybe this shouldn't be described as a sequel. Maybe it's just a Cd to say that "I Am Okay" and here are some happy songs.

P.S. A ton of sad songs coming soon

All songs Written and Recorded by Brandon Gross
Recorded at "My Dormroom".
