""I'm Okay"" lyrics

You carry the world on your shoulders
And you hide so much under the waters
And you think that no one sees
You try not to feel like a burden
So you act like you're fine when you're driftin'
All alone at sea

The world's in a hurry
But you just want to feel safe
You keep your head steady
Knowing you're about to break
You've been running empty
But you give more than you can anyway
And when things get heavy
You tell them you're okay

You battle the lies they've been flowing
You're afraid to show signs that you're sinking
So you just keep sailing through
At times when you're lost in the ocean
And you crash against waves of emotions
You wonder if they're lonely too

The world's in a hurry
But you just want to feel safe
You keep your head steady
Knowing you're about to break
You've been running empty
But you give more than you can anyway
And when things get heavy
You tell them you're okay

Please take me home, don't know where to go
I've turned every stone, but I'm just getting old
Do I just wait for the sun to come up
'Til the days had enough with me?
Will I ever learn to get love
Without leaving myself to bleed?
Please take me home, where no one's alone
I just wanna know a home, where we can grow old
Do I just wait for the sun to come up
'Til the days had enough with me?
Do we ever learn to give love
Without leaving ourselves to bleed?
(But which way is home?)

The world's in a hurry
But you just want to feel safe
You keep your feet steady
Knowing you're about to break
You've been running empty
But you give more than you can anyway
And when things get heavy
And they always get heavy
You trust that I'll be okay
