Be Alright

(album: The Pierces - 2000)

This problem is a decade old.
My longing has been oversold.
I've been repaid a thousand fold
But still I wait for more.

A gentle pull, you bring me down.
A hazy gloom, my glimmer drowns.
Hands will ache and hearts will pound
At my chamber door.

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight.
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why.
And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be
You'll be alright.

Forgive me, take my back to sleep.
Cling to me but let me weap.
A gentle spirit starts to creep.
Now it's running fast.

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight.
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why.
And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be
You'll be alright.

Tangled in the hearts of men,
Pondering my deadly sin.
Roll me over; breathe me in.
Live on me for a while.

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight.
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why.
And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be...

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight.
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why.
And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be
You'll be alright.
You'll be alright.
You'll be alright.
