Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge (2004) - 05. I'm Not Okay (I Promise)
Well, if you wanted honesty thats 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 told you time and time again you sing the words but dunno 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
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 read me like a book But the pages are all torn and frayed now
I'm okay I'm okay! I'm okay now (I'm okay now) But you really need to listen to me 'Cause I'm telling 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)
