“Alright”

I’ve seen the eyes of a fading man- he brought it back again
How come her tears only dry up, when they can wash his hands?
Down, down, down they’re rolling down- see her faith divide
To say she’s mistaken- it keeps the time alive

And I… I’m sorry for tonight

I know the voices of your heart spoke of love the same
They echoed their dreams of mine to me, of which were mine to live
Down, down, down, I set you down- I turned the dreams to pain
You should know I mean to put it all away

And I… I’m sorry for today

Well, I never shed the skin I know
I’d rather watch myself than be exposed
And since I chose the way that you know, well I’m not there, not there
Whoever said that love turns cold when an angry heart is all we know?
If we break the fallen angel’s hold, then the rest is far from ever told

But I’m okay, I’m alright tonight
I’m okay, I’m alright tonight
I’m alright

I’ve tasted every bit of your world- there’s not a sweeter thing
And if my debt runs so dry to you, I see a brighter day
I’m dying for your heart right now to lift me up again
Hold your blessings in my hand for a time

Because I… I’m sorry for tonight

Well, I never shed the skin I know
I’d rather watch myself than be exposed
And since I chose the way that you know, well I’m not there, not there
Whoever said that love turns cold when an angry heart is all we know?
If we break the fallen angel’s hold, then the rest is far from ever told

But I’m okay, I’m alright tonight
I’m okay, I’m alright tonight
I’m okay, I’m alright tonight
I’m okay, I’m alright tonight
