  • (It's alright now, it's alright now)
    I know you get tongue-tied, you trip over your words
    Spend all of your young life on your tiptoes, and it hurts
    Feel like you break down every other day
    You know it's okay not to be okay
    Feels like you piss people off whenever you talk
    Tired of this tightrope, this tightrope you walk
    Darling, you're way, way too hard on yourself
    I don't know why, why you don't ask for help

    It doesn't mean we're giving up the fight now
    Everybody needs a place to hide out, hide out

    Come, come meet me at my tree house
    Yeah, we'll be blowing sweet clouds
    Yeah, we can pretend the world's just you and me
    When the lights are out below us (oh, oh)
    You ever start to freak out (freak out)
    Come meet me at my tree house
    We can forget the world, just you and me
    Ah yeah, it's alright, alright, alright now

    It's alright, alright, alright now

    Ay
    It's alright, alright not to be alright (alright, alright, alright)
    I know you have hopeless days and sleepless nights (ay)
    You workin' a job that you don't even like
    And it got so dark, you can't see the lights
    They don't know what you feel inside
    And I can't say that I do too
    But I'd like to get to run this thing (ay)
    You can say what you feel too if you need to
    I ain't judgin', nah
    I'm just wonderin' when you're coming back
    To this treehouse and this hideout
    If you need a little time out
    Smoke a little and just vibe out

    Come meet me at my tree house
    Yeah, we'll be blowing sweet clouds
    Yeah, we can pretend the world's just you and me
    When the lights are out below us (oh, oh)
    You ever start to freak out (freak out)
    Come meet me at my tree house
    We can forget the world, just you and me
    Ah yeah, it's alright, alright, alright now

    (Ay)
    Girl, I wanna see you shinin' (shinin')
    Only the best for you, I cover you in diamonds (diamonds)
    Matchin' Rollies, now we both got perfect timin' (oh)
    You don't care about the money, but now you smilin'
    Makin' love on a beach on a private island
    Roll the gas up, watch the sun risin'
    Hit the Louis store, pray they got both our sizes
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Come, come meet me at my tree house
    Yeah, we'll be blowing sweet clouds
    Yeah, we can pretend the world's just you and me
    When the lights are out below us (oh, oh)
    You ever start to freak out (freak out)
    Come meet me at my tree house
    We can forget the world, just you and me
    Ah yeah, it's alright, alright, alright now

    You can say whatever you like
    Ain't no judgin' up at this height
    You can be who you are with me
    It's alright, alright, alright now
    (It's alright, alright, alright now)
    (It's alright, alright, alright now)

    It's alright, alright, alright now
    It's alright, alright, alright now Writer/s: Andrew William Jackson, James Andrew Arthur, Nicholas Matthew Balding, Tyrone William Jr. Griffin
