OK
Cosmicosmo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know how to say it
I guess that you will never understand
Lock me out and leave me guessing
I always tried to fake it
But never end up feeling in the end
(You will never understand)
Burn the photos in the backyard
Leave with a few boxes
The years fly by but nothing seems to change
So when you ask me how I'm doing
I can't think of an answer
Besides the only one you let me say
Ok

Scattered papers on the table
A mess surrounds me, reflecting the turmoil in my mind
I don't know how to say it
I am unable to express myself adequately
I guess that you will never understand
I have given up on being understood by you
Lock me out and leave me guessing
You have shut me out and left me in the dark
I always tried to fake it
I attempted to maintain a façade of normalcy
But never end up feeling in the end
However, deep down, I remained unfulfilled
Ok
Fine, I accept my fate and move on
Burn the photos in the backyard
I am willing to let go of the memories we shared
Leave with a few boxes
I shall depart with only the essentials
The years fly by but nothing seems to change
Time passes, but the pain remains constant
So when you ask me how I'm doing
When you enquire about my well-being
I can't think of an answer
I am unable to articulate my feelings in response
Besides the only one you let me say
All I can say is the one response that meets your expectations
Ok
I acquiesce to the situation and pretend that everything is alright
