I'm Not Okay (I Promise) Lyrics
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?
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)
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 all are torn and frayed
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 o-f***ing-kay!
I'm not okay
I'm not okay!
(Okay!)
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'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
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 all are torn and frayed
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 o-f***ing-kay!
I'm not okay
I'm not okay!
(Okay!)

Gerard Way is not okay. he also said it's about high school. 'the photographs your boyfriend took' is about a girl he really liked but ended up taking 'really sleazy' photos with her boyfriend. 'Another line without a hook' is about how he's into the 2nd verse but there are no hooks in the song (?).

I saw My Chem live a couple of weeks ago, they sung this song, and I about died. It's my theme song. It's what gets me through every day. This band saved my life.

this is so my theme song...its about not fitting in and pretending nothings wrong when something is. just like i pretend i dont cut but i do.

I used to be like that.. Always said I was ok, because no one ever asked me and wanted the real answer.. I had so much to hide.. It gets better, I promise..
