It was out on the highway, it was warmer than blood It was spaces and basements, faces brimming with love It was nightfall to daybreak finding a new way It was falling asleep at the wheel while awake It was wasting away; delay the promise of heartache It was tracing the chest to the arm to the hand That's been wielding a knife and trying To cut our dreams in pieces but we'll be fine I feel alright, tonight Yeah, I feel alright tonight I feel (I feel alright) I feel (I feel alright) I feel (I feel alright) I feel (I feel alright) It was fear of foreclosure, stock in General Motors It was boarding up buildings, burnt; the tortured and war-torn It was unpaid rent checks and All the hope left The hearts that still beat through the bones in our chests I feel alright, tonight I guess I feel alright tonight I feel like letting go (I feel) I feel like letting go (Alright) I feel like letting go (Tonight) I feel like letting go, yeah I feel like giving in (I feel) I feel like giving in (Alright) I feel like giving in (Tonight) I feel like giving in, yeah There's a chorus of voices below you There's a prayer of hope composed in song In a basement with the lights turned low and There's room to sing along, so sing along And I feel alright, tonight Yeah, I feel alright tonight I feel (I feel alright) I feel (I feel alright) I feel (I feel alright) I feel (I feel alright)
