Alright
The Cinematics Lyrics

Grasping like a child to fears of being left behind
Feeling scared and holding on tight to things, just like how a little child clings to their parents, for the fear of being left alone.

Scratching in the sand for the lost things
Trying to find something lost, like looking for a lost item in a place where it might be, but with little hope of actually finding it.

Pouring water on dead flowers hoping they might grow again
Trying to revive something that has already died, like trying to bring a dead flower back to life by watering it, even though the chances of it blooming again are slim to none.

Woken up at night by an empty heart
Feeling lonely and empty inside, something that keeps you up at night and makes you feel restless.

We'll cry ourselves to sleep
Feeling emotionally drained and exhausted, and tears are the only way to express the pain and sorrow that you are feeling.

It was a false start
A beginning that seemed promising but ended up being unsuccessful, like starting a race, but then getting disqualified for a mistake that you made.

I-I wonder if you could ever stop
Asking a question to someone, wondering whether they will ever be able to end their suffering and move on from their pain.

I-I wonder if you just let this go
Asking someone if they are willing to let go of whatever is causing them pain and hold them back from moving forward.

Just let it go, let it go, let it go
Encouraging someone to release their pain and sorrow, so that they can finally move forward and start a new chapter in their lives without any baggage from the past.

Walking around these halls for two long years
Feeling trapped and stuck in the same place for a long time, with no sign of progress or improvement in sight.

Been looking for the door I came in
Trying to find a way out of the same old routine, searching for something that will lead to a new beginning, like trying to find the entrance where you entered a place.

There's something that I'm waiting for
Feeling hopeful and anticipating something new and exciting, like waiting for an event or opportunity that will change your life for the better.

Or maybe I've been chasing it, I don't know
Uncertainty about the path you have taken so far, with no clear indication of whether it is leading you closer to what you have been waiting for, or if it is taking you further away from it.

But I have to go, I have to go
Feeling restless and impatient, with a desire to move on from the past and start a new chapter in life, whatever it takes.

If I try, tell me, will you try?
Asking for support and encouragement from someone who is close to you, to help you take the first step towards change, and move on from the past.

There's a way out, we can take it if you like
Pointing out that there is always a way out, and a chance for a better tomorrow, and offering to share the journey with someone who might want to come along.

Turning into something new, whatever we may need
Feeling hopeful and open to change, and ready to embrace whatever the future might bring, with the confidence that you will be able to adjust and adapt to any situation.

I want to try, I have to try, to hold on
Showing determination and the will to persevere, and holding on to hope, even in the toughest of times.

It's alright
Assurance that everything will be okay in the end, and that there is no need to worry or get stressed out about the future.
