It's alright forty days of rain The skin stretched our from the growing pain It'd be nice to have an explanation but it's alright And it's alright if you hate that way Hate me 'cause I'm different, hate me 'cause I'm gay Truth of the matter come around one day it's alright I look at this life line stretched way all across my hand I look at the burned out empty like a plague across the land And for everything I learn there are two I don't understand That's why I'm still on a search through the weather strewn church I'm doing the best that I can and it's alright And it's alright though we worry and fuss We can't get over the hump or get over us It seems easier to push than to let go and trust but it's alright We get a little distance some things get clearer Yeah give 'em the space some hearts get nearer Ran as hard as I could and still ended up here and it's alright So look at this life line stretched way all across my hand I look at the fires of hatred burning up the bounty of this beautiful land I know I'm small gone way but I know I'm strong And it's my thirst that brought me to the water When you give it all up then she carries me on, it's alright, yeah ♪ And it's alright if you feel afraid Plans in pieces, plans mislaid It's the will of the way, will of the way The will of the only way that could have brought me here today And it's alright, And it's alright
