All Alright

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Well I got the call soon as the day hit night
As soon as the headlights lit up the Westside
I stopped the car and came outside
Cause I know that tone
I remember the first time
We wished upon parallel lines
Waiting for a friend to call
And say they're still alive
I've given everyone I know
A good reason to go
I was surprised you stuck around
Long enough to figure out
That it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
And now all my loves that come back to haunt me
My regrets and texts sent to taunt me
I never claimed to be more than a one-night stand
And now I've given everyone I know
A good reason to go
But I came back with the belief
That everyone I love is gonna leave me
And it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
And I know, oh no,
You've fallen from the sun
Crashing through the clouds
I see you burning out
And I know, oh no,
That I put up a front
But maybe, just this once,
Let me keep this one
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
Yeah, it's all alright
I guess it's all alright
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
But it's all alright
“All Alright” by fun. seems to be a song about accepting things as they are and moving on. Despite having nothing left inside of his chest, the singer reassures himself that everything's alright. He receives a call that seems to bring him bad news but decides to get out of the car and face it head-on. The verse signifies that everyone he knows has left him or has a good reason to leave, and he even believes that everyone he loves will leave him eventually. However, he's ready to accept that and acknowledge it as well. In the bridge, he acknowledges that he's been putting up a front when he sees someone he loves falling down, but wants to keep the feeling 'all alright' for once.
The whole song seems to be a reminder to himself that everything doesn't need to be perfect, and it doesn't always have a resolution or a happy ending. Despite trying to please everyone around him and provide them with a reason to stay, he's come to recognize that it's also okay to let oneself be vulnerable and accept things the way they are. The lyrics show that he's ready to accept things that he can't control, and everything will end being all right.

Let me keep this one
Let me hold onto this one relationship.
