[Verse 1]
To the bitter coffee,
Take a bar of sweet
Let your hand be trembling,
But stay on your feet.
Under ribs this stubborn
Day is rumbling loud,
I walk through its fire,
With my faith unbowed.
[Pre-Chorus]
To the bitter minute —
Find a happy thought,
Clench your teeth and hold on,
Keep the pulse you've got.
If the world is biting,
Let it bite in vain,
I will pull you upward
From this darkest rain.
[Chorus]
Just remember,
EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT,
Just remember,
EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT.
It's all pain, my darling,
But it fades with light,
Just remember,
EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT.
[Verse 2]
Blizzard on the window,
Weariness on temples,
But a tiny sparkle
Lives inside your pockets.
Do not fall to silence
When your heart craves battle,
Let your hoarse-cut laughter
Tear this gloom to shatters.
[Pre-Chorus]
To the bitter minute —
Find a happy thought,
Lift your gaze much higher
Than the roofs of grey.
If the night is crushing,
It has not yet broken,
I will walk beside you
Till the end of storms.
[Bridge]
It's the scars that speak here,
Not your own frail weakness,
It's the wind that's tearing,
But it's not tearing you.
Gather shards together,
In your fist and fire,
Just look down, you're standing,
You are still in view.
[Breakdown]
To the bitter coffee,
Take a bar of sweet,
To the bitter minute —
Find a happy beat.
Hear this call that's rising
From the inner rift?
It's the life that's whispering:
Live on, live, live.
[Final Chorus]
Just remember,
EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT,
Just remember,
EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT.
It's all pain, my darling,
But it fades with light,
Just remember,
EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT.
