I'm lost but I'm trying to find my way back
I've never been good with direction
I'm tired of fighting to hide what I lack
These words have no thought or inflection
Is it alright, Love
That I'm scared of myself?
Is it alright, Love
that I feel like someone else?
Is it alright, Love
If the bad side appears?
Is it alright, Love
If I cry useless tears?
I don't have the courage to work out these thoughts
This voice inside me is beginning to shout
I'm always surrounded by haves and have nots
I'm looking to you to find a way out
Is it alright, Love
If I never make sense?
Is it alright, Love
If I curse circumstance?
Is it alright, Love
To get one more chance?
Is it alright, Love
To seek out the distance?
I don't know how high I can build up this wall
or the reason behind why I'm doing it all
But I know without you
I would continue to fall
So, Is it Alright, Love
If I just keep on trying?
Is it alright, Love
if I hesitate deciding?
Is it alright, Love
If I hide from your eyes?
Is it alright, Love
To stop asking
stop asking why?
Is it alright, Love?
Is it alright, Love?
Is it alright?
Love?
