I’m Not Okay (I Promise) Lyrics By My Chemical Romance

    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

    pre
    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 i’m not okay

    pre
    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

    pre
    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

    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

    i’m not okay
    i’m not okay well i’m not okay i’m not ofuckingkay
    i’m not okay
    i’m not okay
