AURORA – To Be Alright Lyrics and Meaning

I know I belong here on earth
But I long to be lifted up
My heart does not rhyme
The rhythm of my mind
What is life worth living
If you can’t dance to anything?
Night after night
Oh I long to be alright

I want to feel it
To feel it
What the people talk about
How do you find it
So easy
And all I can is ask

But whatever you say it’s never right
So I won’t do that
(You cannot make me feel a thing)
And wherever I go, I’m always blind
So I lose my track
(You cannot make me feel alright)

How I hunger for touch
How could you say that I love too much
I don’t want to fight
I just want to feel alright
What is life worth living
If you don’t bleed for anything?
Night after night
Oh I long to be alright

I want to feel it
To feel it
What the people talk about
How do you find it
So easy
And all I can is ask

But whatever you say it’s never right
So I won’t do that
(You cannot make me feel a thing)
And wherever I go, I’m always blind
So I lose my track
(You cannot make me feel alright)

I love it
I believe I love it
I believe I love it
Nobody can make
Me feel something
I believe I love it
I believe I love it
Nobody can make
Me feel

I don’t want to fight
I just want to feel alright
I don’t want to fight
I just want to feel alright
I don’t want to fight
I just want to feel alright

What is life worth living
If you don’t dance to anything?
Night after night
Oh I long to feel alright

“Of all the songs with major chords, it’s the one that fits the album the most, if that makes sense,” AURORA explains. “It’s the desire to feel better, but using the wrong remedies. One of the last stages before the problem becomes something devastating.”
