Lyric I m Not Okay (I Promise)
Well if you wanted honesty, that s all you had to say
I never want to let you down or have you go
It s better off this way
For all the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot
From jumping out the second floor
I m not okay
I m not okay
I m not okay
You wear me out
What will it take to show you that it s not the life it seems
(I m not okay)
I ve told you time and time again
You sing the words but don t know what it means
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time
Take a good hard look
I m not okay
I m not okay
I m not okay
You wear me out
Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you d read me like a book
But the pages are all torn and frayed
I m okay
I m okay
I m okay, now
(I m okay, now)
But you really need to listen to me
Because I m telling you the truth
I mean this, I m okay
(Trust me)
I m not okay
I m not okay
Well, I m not okay
I m not o-fucking-kay
I m not okay
I m not okay
(Okay)
I never want to let you down or have you go
It s better off this way
For all the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot
From jumping out the second floor
I m not okay
I m not okay
I m not okay
You wear me out
What will it take to show you that it s not the life it seems
(I m not okay)
I ve told you time and time again
You sing the words but don t know what it means
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time
Take a good hard look
I m not okay
I m not okay
I m not okay
You wear me out
Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you d read me like a book
But the pages are all torn and frayed
I m okay
I m okay
I m okay, now
(I m okay, now)
But you really need to listen to me
Because I m telling you the truth
I mean this, I m okay
(Trust me)
I m not okay
I m not okay
Well, I m not okay
I m not o-fucking-kay
I m not okay
I m not okay
(Okay)
