It's Alright-Dar Williams

[00:13.670]I know change is a bad thing, [00:17.610]Breaks me down into a sorry sad thing [00:20.560]Not some iridescent grateful butterfly. [00:26.070]I'll resist with defiance, [00:29.440]Not the valor of a mystic silence, [00:32.710]I will fight the dizzy spiral of goodbye. [00:38.030] [00:38.910]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright [00:44.690]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright [00:50.250] [00:51.120]Please don't say you don't love me, [00:54.530]Never dangle any sword above me, [00:57.720]With the kind of change that severs me in two. [01:03.380]Give me amberizing glasses. [01:06.810]Could you slow it down like molasses, [01:10.160]As I salvage my old self away from you. [01:15.180] [01:16.080]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [01:21.950]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [01:28.510]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [01:33.800] [01:34.700]Because I have seen insane things, [01:37.900]All those grand, historic paintings. [01:41.250]Morning light on polished swords and burnished pride. [01:47.220]Anxious smiles encased in whalebone, [01:51.050]Spines of steel from head to tailbone, [01:53.670]Cannons poised to blast the turning of the tide. [01:59.270] [02:00.070]It's a sad and a strange thing. [02:03.580]But it's time and I am changing. [02:06.450]Into something good or bad, well that's your guess. [02:11.800]I'm my own sovereign nation, [02:15.350]Dedicated to a transformation, [02:18.620]Marching on with this target on my chest, oh yes, [02:25.240]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [02:30.510]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [02:36.800]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [02:43.520]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [02:49.230]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [02:55.950]And it's alright, it's alright, it's alright. [03:01.790]
