Song lyrics

Send "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" ringtones to your cell

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
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'd read me like a book
But the pages are all 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-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
(Okay)

103 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I'm not o-fcking-kay ^Sums up the song but if it had just been that, then I wouldn't like the other great parts to the song, so maybe it's a good thing that he elaborates on his idea of being 'not o-fcking-kay' I love MCR!! woop! (And guess what? I'm not 'Emo')

40 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Although this is not my favorite of their songs, I still rate it so highly because I really love the message of it. It sums up the album very well. You might not be able to tell that it is about revenge by just listening to it once, but when you see the music video and listen to it several times, you will find that it is truely the ultimate revenge song. This is a great song to listen to when you're angry. Although it says "I'm not okay" many many times, it builds anger, and the other lyrics tell the story.
