when everything's going wrong

and things are just a little strange

it's been so long now

you've forgotten how to smile

and over head the skys are clear but it still seems to rain on you

and your only friends all have better things to do

[CHORUS]

when you're down and lost

and you need a helping hand

when you're down and lost along the way

oh just tell yourself

I'll, I'll be okay

now things are only getting worse

and you need someone to take the blame

when the love has gone

there's no one to share the pain

been sleepin with the tv on

and lying in an empty bed

all the alcohol in the world would never help me through it again

[CHORUS]

when you're down and lost

and you need a helping hand

when you're down and lost along the way

just try a little harder, try your best to make it through the day

oh just tell yourself,

I'll, I'll be okay

you're not alone

you're not alone

you're not alone

just tell yourself...

I'll, I'll be okay

oh just tell yourself

I'll, I'll be okay

won't you tell yourself

I'll, I'll

[CHORUS]

when you're down and lost

and you need a helping hand

when you're down and lost along the way

try a little harder try your best to make it through the day

oh just tell yourself,

I'll, I'll be okay

I'll, I'll be okay

I'll, I'll be okay

I'll, I'll be okay
