And It’s Still Alright

It ain't alright

The hardness of my head

Now close your eyes

And spin around, say

Hard times you could find

It ain't the way that you want

But it's still alright

Late at night

You lay around wondering

Counting all the lines

Ain't so funny now, say

Times are hard, you get this far

But it ain't the way that you want

I'll be damned if this old man

Don't start to count all his losses

But it's still alright

They say you learn a lot out there

How to scorch and burn

Only up to bury your friends

Then you'll find it gets worse

Standing out on a ledge

With no way to get down

You start praying for wings to grow

Maybe just let go

Late tonight

If you think about it

Remembering all the times

That you pointed out, say

Glass is clear but all this fear

Starts to leave in the morn

Your rattle hands are all that stands

From your time in the dark

But it's still alright

It's still alright
