Be Alright - The Pierces

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 weep
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
