I'll Be Alright
Passion Pit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you remember ever having any thoughts
'Cause when it's all said and done I always believe we were
But I'm not so sure, oh oh oh oh oh oh
I drink a chain and take a couple of my bills
And my parade give you chills the one it don't give me up, oh oh oh oh
I know it had enough

You should go if you want to
Yeah go if you want to
I'll be alright, be alright
Well I've made so many messes
And this love as grow so restless
You would like enough but just
I won't let you go the mess
I'll be alright
I'll be alright

I'm so sad lonely that is offer me to see
Reality from what I dream and no one believes me
No not a single thing
My pain is wasting and I feel like I'll explode
You're looking glammy and below this room wasn't made for you
She's go for someone new

You should go if you want to
Yeah go if you want to
I'll be alright, be alright
Well I've made so many messes
And this love as grow so restless
You would like enough but just
I won't let you go the mess
I'll be alright
I'll be alright

What could I keep housing on the
Heads go on now where's my thought to stumbling
This party is over now it isn't happening
The wind in the could tell on recovery

You should go if you want to
Yeah go if you want to
I'll be alright, be alright
Well I've made so many messes
And this love as grow so restless
You would like enough but just
I won't let you go the mess




I'll be alright
I'll be alright

Overall Meaning

In Passion Pit's song "I'll Be Alright," the lyrics appear to describe a sense of confusion and uncertainty about oneself and their relationships. The first verse raises the question of whether the singer has ever had any profound thoughts or beliefs, expressing uncertainty about their own sense of identity.

The chorus repeatedly tells the subject to leave if they want to, proclaiming that the singer will be alright regardless of what happens. The second verse continues by describing the singer's sense of loneliness and frustration with their unfulfilled dreams. They feel like they are being overlooked by someone glamorous and that the world is not made for them.


The final verse appears to be the singer addressing themselves, asking the question of what they could keep holding onto when their thoughts are stumbling. The final lines of the chorus proclaim once more that they will be alright despite the messes they have made and their restless love.


Overall, "I'll Be Alright" portrays a sense of inner turmoil and self-doubt while simultaneously acknowledging that one can still move forward even with these feelings.

[Verse 1]
Can you remember ever having any fun?
Cause when all it's all said and done
I always believed we were
But now I'm not so sure

[Verse 2]
I drink a gin and take a couple of my pills
Then my parade will give you chills
No honey, don't give me up
I know we've had enough
[Hook]
You should go if you want to
Yeah, go if you want to
I'll be alright, be alright
Well I've made so many messes
And this love has grown so restless
Your whole life's been nothing but this
I won't let you go loveless
I'll be alright, I'll be alright

[Verse 3]
I'm so self loathing that it's hard for me to see
Reality from what I dream
Now no one believes me
No not a single thing

[Verse 4]
My brain is racing and I feel like I'll explode
You’re looking at me from below
This world wasn't made for you
Just go find someone new

[Hook]
You should go if you want to
Yeah, go if you want to
I'll be alright, be alright
Well I've made so many messes
And this love has grown so restless
Your whole life's been nothing but this
I won't let you go loveless
I'll be alright, I'll be alright

[Outro]
Why do I keep hounding on this suffering?
My head’s gone off now all my thoughts are stumbling
This party’s over, no it isn’t happening
No wind in the sails until I’m fully recovering

[Hook]
You should go if you want to
Yeah, go if you want to
I'll be alright, be alright
Well I've made so many messes
And this love has grown so restless
Your whole life's been nothing but this
I won't let you go loveless
I'll be alright, I'll be alright

I'll be alright, I'll be alright
