It was the fear of God that led me to you
  And it's the fear of you that takes getting used to
  I've never been one to hang my heart on a thread
  But you spun me around and you loved me instead
    I know I could turn to something other than you
  'Cause I don't understand you and why you're after me
  I've never been the saint you wanted me to turn to
  And I can't see the view from the eyes you look at me through, oh no
    But I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm alright
  I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm alright
    So cut below the surface and try hard not to notice
  That I could be so foolish thinkin' I'm alright
  I've got no one to hold me, I've got no one to carry
  Everything inside of me that I won't let you see
