Song Lyrics

JulietteBee

I stumbled upon this song just now as my body once again refuses to sleep. It expresses my heart. I am sure I am not alone when I say, "I Am Not Okay." I hate this disease! I hate what it is doing to my darling mommy, diminishing her bit by bit by bit. I hate also that it leaves me begging/praying/wishing for some family member to notice my struggles and ask me if I am okay, and offer me a shoulder to cry on, or some respite.

@jen ht, I love the song you shared. I've never heard that one either, but wow, the similarities. Thank you!

Thank you @ARIL, I wish none of us had to be on this journey, but it does help knowing that I am not alone. 🫂

Lyrics of I Am Not Okay by Jelly Roll

verse

I am not okayI′m barely getting byI'm losing track of daysAnd losing sleep at nightI am not okayI′m hanging on the railsSo if I say I'm fineJust know I learned to hide it well

chorus

I know I can't be the only oneWho′s holding on for dear lifeBut God knows, I knowWhen it′s all said and doneI'm not okayBut it′s all gonna be alrightIt's not okayBut we′re all gonna be alright

verse

I woke up todayI almost stayed in bedHad the devil on my backAnd voices in my headSome days, it ain't all badSome days, it all gets worseSome days, I swear I′m better offLayin' in that dirt

chorus

I know I can't be the only oneWho′s holding on for dear lifeBut God knows, I knowWhen it′s all said and doneI'm not okayBut it′s all gonna be alrightIt's not okayBut we′re all gonna be alright

hook

Gonna be alrightGonna be alright

bridge

I know one dayWe'll see the other sideThe pain′ll wash awayIn a holy water tideAnd we all gonna be alright

chorus

I know I can't be the only oneWho's holding on for dear lifeBut God knows, I knowWhen it′s all said and doneI′m not okayBut it's all gonna be alrightIt′s not okayBut we're all gonna be alrightI′m not okayBut it's all gonna be alright
