Tell Me Everything's Gunna Be Alright
Embracing Uncertainty: Finding Comfort in 'Tell Me Everything's Gunna Be Alright'
Lyrics
I don't know what I'm doing, I don't know
Expressing uncertainty and confusion about the speaker's actions or decisions.
It might look like I do, but I don't.
Contrasting external appearance with internal feelings, admitting a lack of understanding despite appearances.
Kinda feels like I'm running it kinda feels
Describing the sensation of running, possibly metaphorical for facing challenges or difficulties.
Like I've been running for way too long
Highlighting a prolonged period of running or struggling in life.
Like I've been running for way too long
Reiteration of the speaker feeling like they've been running for an extended period.
So sail your fingers through my hair
Invoking a tactile image of comfort, someone running their fingers through the speaker's hair.
And tell me it's alright
Seeking reassurance and comfort in the face of uncertainty.
Be my lover tonight
Expressing a desire for intimacy and emotional support.
And tell me everything gunna be alright
Requesting confirmation that everything will be okay.
Tell me it's gunna be alright
Repeating the plea for assurance and a positive outlook.
I really need to hear it, I need to hear it
Emphasizing the urgent need to hear comforting words from someone else.
I need to hear it from someone else's lips
Preferring to receive reassurance from external sources rather than relying on self-belief.
Cuz I don't believe myself, no I don't believe me
Expressing a lack of trust in oneself and the need for external validation.
I've been lying for way too long
Admitting to a history of dishonesty or self-deception.
Yeah, I've been lying for way too long
Reiterating a pattern of lying and deception over an extended period.
So sail your fingers through my hair
Continuing the tactile imagery, seeking physical comfort as a form of solace.
And tell me it's alright
Reaffirming the need for reassurance and comfort.
Be my lover tonight
Repeating the desire for intimacy and emotional support.
And tell me everything gunna be alright
Reiterating the plea for confirmation that everything will be alright.
Tell me it's gunna be alright
Emphasizing the importance of receiving reassurance about the future.
I don't know what I'm doing, I don't know
Repeating the initial lines, underscoring the persistent uncertainty and lack of clarity.
It might look like I do, but I don't.
Reiterating the contrast between external appearance and internal confusion.
