It's Alright
The Creases Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whenever I'm up you're down
Whenever I see you I drown
When I'm stuck underneath
Step off, of me
When you're happy
Cause I know, you'll be
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
Too loud, how can it be too loud
When you wanted me around
So why are you always down
When I'm in between
Step off, of me
When you're happy
Cause I know, you'll be
(You were saying it all night)
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
Tell the world I can be
What I want, what's in reach
Tell the world I can see
That what I want, isn't what I need
So tell me now
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
Is it alright back in the middle
Back in the middle with you
Is it alright cause I get a little
Lost in this feeling with you
The Creases’s song "It's Alright" is a rhythmic and catchy tune with lyrics that speak about the ups and downs of a romantic relationship. The song starts with the singer expressing his love towards someone he sees around and then confesses that he feels down whenever that person is down. He admits feeling lost and drowning whenever he is underneath, and asks his love interest to step off of him when they are happy. The main chorus of the song emphasizes the idea that the singer feels lost in the feeling that he has for this person, and asks if it is alright to feel this way and be back in the middle with them.
The second verse talks about a misunderstanding between the singer and his love interest. The love interest demanded that the singer be around, and yet when he was, they were always down. The singer feels like he is in between and asks for space when his love interest is happy, believing they will return to the middle when they are ready. The bridge of the song has the singer speaking to the world, saying that they can be what they want and achieve what is in their reach. The final chorus of the song repeats the central question of the song. The singer asks if it is alright for him to feel lost in the feeling with his love interest and be back in the middle with them.
