I don’t wanna move, I don’t want to sleep
I pray the lord to count his sheep
I don’t want to turn, no, I won’t dare
I don’t wanna know if you’re still there

‘Cause I am afraid to walk alone
It takes me into the danger zone
I don’t feel safe, it’s what I dread
I just want to stay in bed

So just say it’ll all be okay
Tell me we don’t have to end this way
Not on Presidents Day

Everything is always a fight
Every day and every night
And I can pretend that everything’s fine
Maybe it’s all just in my mind

I’m tired of talk, I’m tired of thinking
I just want to walk away
Maybe now, maybe never
The past, it holds me in its sway

So just say it’ll all be okay
Tell me we don’t have to end this way
Not on Presidents Day

Not everyone can reach so high
Preside over the land and sky
If you think that life is cheap
You might reach the top of the heap

All I want is sweet relief
From all the fear and pain and grief
Another day, another ache
Maybe we should take a break

And just say it’ll all be okay
Tell me we don’t have to end this way
Not on Presidents Day
