Lyrics & Translation

[English]

My last smile was a while ago

I can show you my fears and how wild I go

I got tattoo tears on my mind I know

That they’re really my favorite

Everything’s changing

Nothing stays the same, but the heart break

Hole in my chest, can’t see it but it’s heart-shaped baby

Pour pain in a champagne glass

Seat belt for my feelings, cause I know it won’t last with you

I’m not ok

Excuse the screaming. I just thought you needed to know

I’m not ok

Don’t you worry, I’ve got everything in control

I’m not ok

I’m nervous, struggling to be perfect

And that’s ok

I’m hurting, and finally got the nerve to say

I’m not ok

Ten miles down a winding road

Tin-roof raindrops that remind me of you

Fourteen karat solid gold teardrops in my coffee

Look at what you cost me

And I would leave it all in a heartbeat

Found the lighter that you left in the car seat

(Yeah yeah)

I’mma set fire to the whole thing

But it wouldn’t do much cause I won’t be over you

I’m not ok

Excuse the screaming. I just thought you needed to know

I’m not ok

Don’t you worry, I’ve got everything in control

I’m not ok

I’m nervous, struggling to be perfect

And that’s ok

I’m hurting, and finally got the nerve to say

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I’m not ok

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I’m not ok...

I’m not ok

Excuse the screaming. I just thought you needed to know

I’m not ok

Don’t you worry, I’ve got everything in control

I’m not ok

I’m nervous, struggling to be perfect

And that’s ok

I’m hurting, and finally got the nerve to say
