Lyrics

Okay (Acoustic)

[Verse 1]

I felt a year's worth of hurt and sadness catching up with me

And the sky I painted to silence the pain, it's bleeding into grey

[Chorus]

I don't know if I've been worse

I don't know if I can change

But right now‚ I don't think‚ I don't think that I'm okay

I don't think that I'm okay

[Verse 2]

In unfamiliar‚ somber surroundings, confessing all of me

A perfect stranger, she puts pen to paper‚ consoling in her sleep

And how foreign it felt when I opened my mouth and heard the truth come out (I heard the truth come out)

I've been running away, a tired respite from pain

My only novocaine, my only novocaine

[Chorus]

I don't know if I've been worse

I don't know if I can change

But right now‚ I don't think, I don't think that I'm okay

I don't think that I'm okay

[Bridge]

Keep your "it'll get better's" and I'll keep my "I'll be just fine's"

I'll show you flashes of colors and hide behind bouquets of lies

So keep your "it'll get better's" and I'll keep my "I'll be just fine's" (I'll be just fine)

I'll show you flashes of colors and hide behind bouquets of lies

[Chorus]

I don't know if I've been worse

I don't know if I can change

But right now, I don't think, I don't think that I'm okay

I don't know if I've been worse

I don't know if I can change

But right now, I don't think, I don't think that I'm okay
