It’s Alright

They told you you were smart

They told you you were good

They told you you were strong

They told you that you could

They kept your heart in tact

But kept the curtains closed

A list of lies and truths

You didn’t know, you didn’t know

It’s alright if you breakdown

It’s alright if you wanna cry

Nothing lasts forever anyway

It might not get better but it’ll change

It’s alright (you didn’t know, you didn’t know)

It’s alright (you didn’t know, you didn’t know)

So now the cat is out

And all the magic’s gone

That little snow globe world

Didn’t last for long

If curiosity’s

A killer like they say

Then this is all at war

Against a fool’s parade

It’s alright if you breakdown

It’s alright if you wanna cry

Nothing lasts forever anyway

It might not get better but it’ll change

It’s alright (you didn’t know, you didn’t know)

It’s alright (you didn’t know, you didn’t know)
