it's alright
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Depths of 'It's Alright' by Salem Avenue
Lyrics
Say it softly
Saying something softly.
In a sentence you think that I won't know
Expressing something in a way you believe I won't understand.
I'm sorry
Apologizing for something.
You'll fade to be someone I don't know
Anticipating a change where you become unrecognizable.
Couldn't put you in a coffin
Unable to cause harm to you, metaphorically.
It hurts when I think about it often
Feeling pain when frequently contemplating a certain thought.
Your flowers and your gemstones
Symbolic references to gifts or offerings.
Everything that I know
Alluding to familiarity or understanding.
When you borrow all the sunlight
Borrowing positivity and light.
It erases any doubt you had in your head
Positivity erasing doubts in your mind.
That it's alright
Reassurance that everything is fine.
That it's okay
Reiteration that everything is okay.
I don't want to recall my life in the worst ways now
Avoiding recalling negative aspects of life.
It becomes so loud
The realization becoming emotionally intense.
The fear I'd let you down
Facing the fear of disappointing someone.
I decide to face all my worst days now
Choosing to confront challenging days.
And it's alright
Reassurance that everything is indeed fine.
And it's okay
Reiteration that everything is still okay.
I don't have the time to waste another night
Emphasizing the value of not wasting time.
I don't know why
Expressing uncertainty or lack of understanding.
I don't want to see you
Not wanting to encounter someone.
And all the things that I know I should believe
Acknowledging a struggle with belief in certain things.
I know I should believe...
Reaffirming the need to believe.
