Alright
Discovering Self-Redemption: Clément Leroux's 'Alright' Meaning
Lyrics
I lost myself trying to be someone else,
Feeling lost and disconnected while attempting to conform to another identity.
But for you, I guess it’s the least I could do
Expressing a willingness to be someone else for the sake of a specific person.
And i’m alright now,
Claiming a state of well-being or acceptance.
I’m alright
Reiterating a sense of being okay or content.
I can’t sleep at night, ‘cause when i close my eyes,
Experiencing difficulty sleeping due to thoughts of someone special.
You’re the only one who’s left in my mind,
Highlighting the persistent presence of a particular person in the thoughts.
But i’m alright, yeah
Despite challenges, claiming a state of well-being.
I’m alright
Reaffirming a sense of being alright or okay.
Have I ever realised how much you meant to me?
Questioning whether the speaker has truly recognized the importance of the person being addressed.
I’m drowning alone into a lake of sadness,
Expressing a feeling of overwhelming isolation and sadness.
Filled only with tears of hopelessness,
Describing a profound sadness filled with a sense of hopelessness.
But i’m alright now,
Contradicting earlier struggles by claiming a current state of well-being.
I’m alright
Reiterating a sense of being alright or okay.
Is there any way for me to get out of here?
Expressing a desire to escape a difficult situation.
I don’t want to grow old and still live in fear,
Conveying a fear of growing old while living in constant fear.
But i’m alright now,
Despite challenges, claiming a state of well-being.
I’m alright
Reaffirming a sense of being alright or okay.
Perhaps I never realised how little I meant to you?
Questioning the significance of the speaker to the addressed person.
I’ll be alright as long as you stay away from me
Asserting that the speaker will be fine as long as the addressed person stays away.
Away from me
Repeating the plea for the addressed person to stay away.
