Verse 1
Sorry that I made a mess outta things
For laughing so hard that I’m flirting with friends
I’m sorry for over-apologizing
It’s all that I have, I guess it’s my bad
Sorry for sayin’ the things that I said
For taking up space in the conversation
I could feel you were losing your patience
And everyone’s laughing, but you had to undermine it
I was just excited, you made me hide it
Pre-Chorus
I had to learn to love
The prisoner you fucking hated, uh-huh
Left me rotting in the basement, uh-huh
Parted with myself so that we were both pointing fingers my way
So loaded, so jaded
Two shoutin’, one naked, uh-huh
Turned my back on all my values, uh-huh
As long as you were right, they were wrong
Left me and backed you, but I (Uh, uh, uh)
Everything that I believed in became yours
Oh, Lord
Chorus
Help me understand, I’m okay as I am
(Help me understand, I’m okay as I am)
Verse 3
Sorry that while you were sleeping in bed
I was laid next to you crying and texting my mum instead
I’m tired of breaking and calling it compromising
I couldn’t give more, am I awful?
Pre-Chorus
I had to learn to love
The prisoner you fucking hated, uh-huh
Left me rotting in the basement, uh-huh
Parted with myself so that we were both pointing fingers my way
So loaded, so jaded
Two shoutin’, one naked, uh-huh
Turned my back on all my values, uh-huh
As long as you were right, they were wrong
Left me and backed you, but I
Everything that I believed in became yours
Oh, Lord
Chorus
Help me understand I’m okay as I am
(Help me understand, I’m okay as I am)
Help me understand I’m okay as I am
Help me understand I’m okay as I am, as I am
Outro
I’m okay as I am
