I'LL BE ALRIGHT
Waiting up, but it's getting late
Sometimes I wonder why I wait
I should know better but I hope tonight
Will be different
Raindrops fall on the windowpane
Locking me inside my brain
I don't want to go out but
I don't want to be alone
And every time I tell myself
I'll be alright, I'll be alright
But here I am, not better now than the day before
And I know I will never find
A better life until I've tried
And when I try, I'll be alright
Mirror cracks and it makes me smile
Looks like me in a different style
I only wish that I could be what I could be
I'd wake up cold afraid of my shadow
Scared of things that I have seen in my dreams
All my fears have been self-created
Watch them burn so deep within my soul, in my soul
In my soul...

Marina's Notes:
You have to get off your ass & let go of your fears to make things happen. Nothing
will come to you unless you do something about it. When I came up with the music for this
song, I had the Ramones tribute album in my CD player. If you speed up the song and use
guitars, youll hear the influence, especially in the verses.
