I'm Okay

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well, I didn't even cry that day

Yeah, I just walked out straight

And I said, "well, okay."

I've got a big, ole' story in me and it's more

Than just a bunch of shit that you had to say.

Was I hoping just to get in my car and get on the freeway.

But google maps still knew I was red, and not okay.

So I just sat in my car and let it all out.

And I pretended to text you what I wanted to say.

But I thought I'd write this song instead,

'Cause it's cooler

Than calling you and texting you

Like I was a high schooler.

But I guess it's not cool, anyway.

To lose your love, to go astray.

And I guess it's not cool to go away.

I guess it's pretty bad to not be okay.

So I got in my car and I got it started

And just I said, "well, what about that?"

I said, "well, I ain't gonna follow no 'google maps'!

I'm just gonna try to find the street that I lived on!"

Try to find where I live.

I don't care about no helicopters.

Or what you're gonna think about this.

Me pulling away, me slamming my door.

And me leaving in my car for, like, 20 minutes.

Before I even left your house that day.

I don't care what you're gonna say,

Or what kinda story you're gonna make.

I just know that I'm, I'm gonna be okay

With all of it.

I just said that I don't even care if I'm gonna be okay

With the story that you tried to make out of me.

And I don't care if you had a lot to say,

Or you're just a picture that makes me wanna look away.

I'm just here trying to be my own queen.

I guess the "king" thing didn't work out for me.

So I'm putting the crying away.

I don't give a shit what you have to say.

I'm okay.

I'm okay.

I'm okay.

And I just said that I don't even care if I'm gonna be okay

With the story that you tried to make out of me.

And I don't care if you had a lot to say,

If I'm just a picture that makes you wanna look away.

I'm okay.
