Just Because I'm Okay
Embracing the Weight: Unveiling the Hidden Storm Within
Lyrics
So there's this thing
Introducing a certain thing or situation
I don't know what it is, but I can't put it down
Expressing a strong attraction or interest in the unknown thing
See, there's this thing
Reiterating the presence of the mysterious thing
Wish I could show it to you, but I don't know how
Desire to share the mysterious thing but unsure how to
So I keep carrying it 'round
Continuing to carry the undisclosed burden
I'm wide awake, wide awake, I can't explain, can't escape
Feeling awake and alert, struggling to explain or escape
If the issue's on my mind, is the issue only mine?
Questioning whether the issue on the mind is personal or shared
Don't complain, push it down, but who are you to explain
Resisting complaint and internalizing emotions
How I look like I'm doing just fine?
Questioning the perception of looking fine despite inner struggles
Just because I'm okay doesn't mean it's okay
Stating that appearing okay externally doesn't reflect internal turmoil
Inside I'm like a hurricane, but you'd never tell
Comparing inner turmoil to a hurricane despite outward composure
Even though I'm coping, couldn't feel that same control
Acknowledging coping mechanisms but lacking complete control
And just because I carry it well, don't mean it isn't heavy
Highlighting the weight of the undisclosed burden
Sometimes I feel like I should live with it
Considering living with the burden to maintain a tough facade
Make you believe I'm tough, but now I've woken up
Admitting vulnerability after awakening to the situation
Each further hits me like a tonne of bricks from you
Feeling the impact of emotional weight, especially from others
But now I've had enough
Reaching a point of deciding that enough is enough
You try picking it up
Challenging someone to understand the difficulty of the burden
I'm wide awake, wide awake, I can't explain, can't escape
Repeating the struggle to explain or escape while being awake
If the issue's on my mind, is the issue only mine?
Reiterating the ambiguity of whether the issue is personal or shared
Don't complain, push it down, but who are you to explain
Encountering resistance to expressing emotions externally
How I look like I'm doing just fine?
Questioning the external appearance of being fine
Just because I'm okay doesn't mean it's okay
Repeating the theme that external appearance doesn't reflect inner struggles
Inside I'm like a hurricane, but you'd never tell
Comparing inner turmoil to a hurricane with an undetectable exterior
Even though I'm coping, couldn't feel that same control
Acknowledging coping mechanisms but expressing a lack of full control
Yeah, just because I carry it well, don't mean it isn't heavy
Reiterating the weight of the undisclosed burden despite carrying it well
Mean it isn't heavy, no
Emphasizing that the burden is indeed heavy
Don't mean it isn't heavy, oh, no, no
Repeating the emphasis on the weight of the burden
Hmm
Expression of contemplation or reflection
Just because I'm okay doesn't mean it's okay
Repeating the theme that external appearance doesn't reflect inner struggles
Inside I'm like a hurricane, but you'd never tell
Comparing inner turmoil to a hurricane with an undetectable exterior
Even though I'm coping, couldn't feel that same control
Acknowledging coping mechanisms but expressing a lack of full control
Just because I carry it well, don't mean it isn't heavy
Reiterating the weight of the undisclosed burden despite carrying it well
