[Intro] Heh—heh—heh The room keeps turning I count to four Then count once more [Verse 1] You left the hallway light on again I watch it crawl underneath the door My hands are cold, my head’s too loud I pace the same square of the floor I missed the signs, I missed the sleep I tell myself I’m still in control But every little sound in this house Keeps tugging hard at the seams of my skull [Pre-Chorus] Stay where I can see you Say my name slow I’m trying to find the person I was an hour ago [Chorus] I’m not okay, but I can say it I’m not okay, so don’t let me hide Take the sharp thing, take the keys now Stay right here till the morning arrives I came in ready to wreck the whole room Now I’m asking you, help me get through I’m not okay, but I can say it Stay by my side till the storm passes through [Verse 2] You set the glass of water down And slide the phone across the tile I almost laugh, then bite it back You sit with me and wait awhile No grand speech, no magic fix Just your sleeve against my arm The whole night shakes inside my chest But your steady voice keeps me from harm [Pre-Chorus] Stay where I can see you Say my name slow I’m trying to find the person I was an hour ago [Chorus] I’m not okay, but I can say it I’m not okay, so don’t let me hide Take the sharp thing, take the keys now Stay right here till the morning arrives I came in ready to wreck the whole room Now I’m asking you, help me get through I’m not okay, but I can say it Stay by my side till the storm passes through [Bridge] No blade, no bravado No dare, no disguise Just the chair by the doorway And your hand in my sight If I lose the thread, keep talking If I go quiet, don’t go We can call somebody together We can take this slow [Final Chorus] I’m not okay, but I can say it I’m not okay, and I’m staying alive Take the sharp thing, take the keys now Stay right here till the morning arrives I came in ready to wreck the whole room Now I’m asking you, help me get through I’m not okay, but I can say it Stay by my side till the storm passes through [Outro] Stay by my side Till the storm passes through Heh—heh—heh I’m still here with you
