[Verse 1] Another year around this blue marble Another year closer to the end The coffee's bitter and the bills are piling I'm playing house, but I'm just playing pretend I check the mirror for a face I recognize A little older, maybe a little more wise But beneath the sweater and the tired stare There's a kid waiting for the world to be fair [Chorus] Oh, I'm doing okay, I'm making it through Checking the boxes that I'm supposed to do Paying the rent, keeping the lights on at night But it feels like a costume that's a little too tight Yeah, I'm doing okay, I've got nothing to fear But why do I still feel like I'm hiding down here? [Verse 2] I made my mistakes, oh, I burned all the bridges Left scars on the canvas and mud on the ridges I learned how to apologize, I learned how to lie To keep the peace when the truth makes me cry Now I'm responsible, heavy with keys Carrying weight that brings me to my knees [Bridge] Sometimes I catch my reflection in glass Searching for magic, waiting for time to pass Still want to run when the thunder starts loud Still want to scream at the sight of a cloud I'm an adult on paper, a ghost in the hall Trying to stand steady while feeling so small [Chorus] Oh, I'm doing okay, I'm making it through Checking the boxes that I'm supposed to do Paying the rent, keeping the lights on at night But it feels like a costume that's a little too tight Yeah, I'm doing okay, I've got nothing to fear But why do I still feel like I'm hiding down here? [Outro] Still just a kid with a grown-up's name Still playing pieces in a different game Yeah, I'm doing okay... I think I'm doing okay. [Fade Out]
