I knew when it was over
My words didn't matter anymore
That little tie you had in your hair
Who did you put it there for
I've been stuck here with these thoughts before
They seem to keep me up at night
The things that used to amuse me
Are no longer worth the fight
I'll be alright
I pick myself up again
I'll be alright
I pick myself up
Just wait and see
I think this melancholy suits me
I've always had a longing heart
I've told myself to let it be
Let everything fall apart
I've cursed and damned this city
I've cursed and damned myself too
I've packed my bags and said goodbye
So I could forget about you
I'll be alright
I pick myself up again
I'll be alright
I pick myself up
Just wait and see
I've read my words all over again
In search for new clues
And I've burned them all on lonely nights
While I sang down hearted blues
I heard you're back in Oslo
That you're doing pretty fine
And I can't help but wonder
Do you think of me sometimes
I'll be alright
I pick myself up again
I'll be alright
I pick myself up
Just wait and see
