V1 I could tell you I'm ok, I'm alright And I'm Getting good at getting by I could give you A half smile, an I'm fine And my acting Would get better with time PRE But there's something I want you to know I didn't know till I was alone It might be hard to hear So I'll make it clear And I hope that you listen close CH I I never been better Oh I can finally breathe I Never knew How good it'd be For who i was To finally meet Favorite version of me V2 I could show you My side that stays quiet But we know that I'm not the kind Thanks for the memories Thanks for the scars Cause now they're All my favorite parts

Lyrics

V1 I could tell you I'm ok, I'm alright And I'm Getting good at getting by

I could give you A half smile, an I'm fine And my acting Would get better with time

PRE But there's something I want you to know I didn't know till I was alone It might be hard to hear So I'll make it clear And I hope that you listen close

CH I I never been better Oh I can finally breathe I Never knew How good it'd be For who i was To finally meet Favorite version of me

V2 I could show you My side that stays quiet But we know that I'm not the kind

Thanks for the memories Thanks for the scars Cause now they're All my favorite parts
