Lyrics
[verse]
Trust me, I'm fine, that's the biggest lie I sell
Smile for the cameras, act like all is well
You wanted a hero, well here's what you get
A kid with a mask and a lot of regret
[chorus]
No, I'm not alright, and I won't pretend
Paint the picture crooked, watch it never mend
Go ahead and stare, write it down in stone
I'm not okay, I swear it on my own
[verse]
They put me in a box with a label on the lid
Called me broken since the day I was a kid
So call it a warning, call it a scene
I'm done playing normal, done playing clean
[chorus]
No, I'm not alright, and I won't pretend
Paint the picture crooked, watch it never mend
Go ahead and stare, write it down in stone
I'm not okay, I swear it on my own
[bridge]
Go on, laugh it off, tell your friends the news
Watch the kid who cracked under all your views
I'm not asking for your pity or your praise
Just the room to burn in my own strange ways
[chorus]
No, I'm not alright, and I won't pretend
Paint the picture crooked, watch it never mend
Go ahead and stare, write it down in stone
I'm not okay, I swear it on my own
