I'm Not Okay (I Promise)

[Verse 1] 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? [Chorus] I'm not okay, I'm not okay, hey hey, hey I'm not okay, hey, hey You wear me out [Verse 2] 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 (I'm not okay) 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 [Chorus] I'm not okay, I'm not okay, hey, hey, hey I'm not okay, hey, hey You wear me out [Instrumental Break] [Refrain] Forget about the dirty looks The photographs your boyfriend took You said you read me like a book But the pages all are torn and frayed now [Bridge] But 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 [Outro] I'm not okay, I'm not okay Well, I'm not okay, I'm not o-fucking-kay I'm not okay, hey, hey, I'm not okay, —kay
