But I'm Doing Okay Lyrics

A curse describes this year

It brought a sinking ship

It showed an ugly fear

It gets uttered on my lips

And then it slips

A knife across the neck

Utterly circumspect

The time I spent in heck

Not what I'd expect

But I'm doing okay now

It made me strong

I can't say how

But it feels wrong

But I'm doing okay now

It made me strong

I can't say how

But it feels wrong

Camera stares me in the eyes

You can see my face a thousand times

Deflecting questions of why

Reflecting all the thought crimes

There is no consequence

To loving the future first

To shun the present tense

Our goals lay bare the worst

But I'm doing okay now

It made me strong

I can't say how

But it feels wrong

But I'm doing okay now

It made me strong

I can't say how

But it feels wrong

Lying on my back

In the hot sands

All the words I lack

For how I held your hand

The strange, calm sea

For all its glory deep

Couldn't drown your plea

For the eternal sleep

But I'm doing okay now

It made me strong

I can't say how

But it feels wrong

But I'm doing okay now

It made me strong

I can't say how

But it feels wrong
