I'M Okay
Just let me stress
I'm okay with all the anxiety
Don't tell me I'm amazing
It just makes it worse
I have to be perfect
Or I'm a terrible person
I can't help this feeling
Yet I'm okay
Don't try and help
I don't trust you with a thing I say
Don't say I'm pretty
I'll just find a flaw
I can't help anything I do
It's not like I don't want to trust you
I don't have a person I can talk to
I think they're going to go behind my back
And betray me
Yet I'm okay
I hide behind being egoistical
Making people laugh is what I love
Just a smile makes me know I did something
I don't want anyone to know
I'm not okay
So for now
To everyone else
I just okay
