i thought i was alright
as lost as i was
i thought i was alright
nothing could fit into place
but i was happy
i thought all was well
i thought i was alright
the world was revolving
and so was i
but i thought i was alright
torments never mattered
as i held my head high
i thought i was alright
nothing really mattered
neither the world nor i
i thought i was alright
i met you i laughed and i laughed some more
still i was alright
so much better than alright
i guess
i was happy
i saw me
i found you
i touched my low
i touched my high
i touched you
all was alright
and so was i
i needed a hand
i found another soul
my angel i said
i found my dream
i needed to cry
you held me tight
as you lay next to me
trying to push everything away
but i wouldn't stop
you knew what mattered was you
i needed you
you gave me comfort
you let me cry
you held me tight
i was ok
everything was alright
i guess
i was happy
remember that day
not so long ago
you held my hand
we walked through lonely streets
not so alone
i had you
you had me
i had everything
the dark corners didnt scare me anymore
maybe i didnt care no more
i held you
you held me
we had control
i was alright
i stand here sometimes
looking far far away
remembering a long lost summer afternoon
and the bus ride
you were so close
everything seemed alright
i stand here
every day
every night
every single moment of my life
trying not to think
trying not to recapitulate
every thing that felt so right
the days dont pass
and the night seems lonelinier still
i think i'm alright
sometimes i need to hear your voice
sometimes i need your touch
your arms
our talks
the way you smelled
deep into myself i just need to see
i can hear you still
smell the way you smelled
feel your touch
see you smile
or was that your grin?
i think i'm alright
you are with me
you are within me
and i'm happier still
i guess
i am alright

u got it right, its about comfortability that we seek in our own trembling voices.

"We look before and after
And pine for what is not,
our sweetest songs are those
full of saddest thoughts."
