Feeling Alright
Warpaint Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel asleep just to dream about
I know too many reasons to fight
So glad that I have taken my time
My mind is made of simple thoughts
I'm going up to start this day
Soon you see me now
Under the falling sky feeling alright
Careless, not hopeless, you can't bring me down
But I know too many reasons to fight
So glad that I have you on my side, I've taken my time
Only this life here is happening
I can see these two things, I'm not worried
First rule of thumb you gave: promise not to fade away
So where do you go to sleep now?
My mind is made of simple thoughts
I'm going up to start this day
Soon you see me now
