Not Ok
Kygo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seven months, two weeks and seven days
Since I left, who's counting anyway?
But for me the only thing that's changed
Is the distance between New York and LA
Seven months, two weeks and seven days
Since I was so easily replaced
It's so strange how I recognize her face
But tell me, does she make you feel the same?
Kills me to know she's sleeping in my place

It's midnight and I'm wasted
So wasted, I'm wasted
I can't believe I'm calling you up again
I know I might be crazy
So crazy, I'm crazy
I can't believe I'm calling you just to say

I'm not okay
I just called you to say, ooh
I'm not okay, oh
I just called you to say, ooh
I'm not okay

I'm not okay

Another day with whiskey and cheap wine
But it don't stop this dream back in my mind
My friends all say that all will heal in time
But the truth is it don't give me peace of mind

It's midnight and I'm wasted
So wasted, I'm wasted
I can't believe I'm calling you up again
I know I might be crazy
So crazy, I'm crazy
I can't believe I'm calling you just to say

I'm not okay
I just called you to say, ooh
I'm not okay, oh
I just called you to say, ooh
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not, I'm not okay,ooh
I just called you to say, oh




I just called you to say, ooh
I'm not okay, oh, oh

Overall Meaning

In "Not Ok," Kygo and Chelsea Cutler sing about a past relationship that is clearly still on the mind of the singer. The opening lines of the song state that it has been seven months, two weeks, and seven days since the singer left, but they reveal that they are still counting despite their claim to the contrary. They also mention how strange it is that they recognize the face of their replacement, but wonder if the new person makes their former partner feel the same.


As the song progresses, it is clear that the singer is struggling to cope with the end of the relationship. They are drinking heavily, and the thoughts of their past love are still plaguing them despite the reassurances of their friends. The chorus of the song is a confession that the singer is, in fact, not okay. They are not handling the situation well, and they feel compelled to call their ex to tell them so.


Line by Line Meaning

Seven months, two weeks and seven days
It's been 231 days since I left


Since I left, who's counting anyway?
Even though it's been that long, it doesn't matter because nobody cares


But for me the only thing that's changed
Nothing feels different for me


Is the distance between New York and LA
I'm still far away from you


Since I was so easily replaced
You forgot all about me very quickly


It's so strange how I recognize her face
I still see your face everywhere I go


But tell me, does she make you feel the same?
Does she make you feel the way I did?


Kills me to know she's sleeping in my place
It hurts to know someone else is in my spot


Another day with whiskey and cheap wine
I've been trying to forget you with alcohol


But it don't stop this dream back in my mind
I still dream about you


My friends all say that all will heal in time
My friends tell me that I'll get over you eventually


But the truth is it don't give me peace of mind
But that doesn't make me feel any better


I'm not okay
I'm not doing well mentally


I just called you to say, ooh
I wanted to let you know that


I'm not okay, oh
I'm really not okay


Another day with whiskey and cheap wine
I'm still trying to forget you with alcohol


But it don't stop this dream back in my mind
I can't escape thinking about you


I'm not, I'm not okay,ooh
I need you to know that I'm not okay


I just called you to say, oh
This is the reason why I called

Seven months, two weeks and seven days
Since I left, who's counting anyway
But for me the only thing that's changed
Is the distance between New York and L. A.
Seven months, two weeks and seven days
Since I was so easily replaced
It's so strange how I recognize her face
Tell me does she make you feel the same
Kills me to know, she's sleepin' in my place
It's midnight and I'm wasted, so wasted, I'm wasted
I can't believe I'm callin' you up again
I know I might be crazy, so crazy, I'm crazy
I can't believe I'm callin' you just to say
I'm not ok
I just called you to say
I'm not ok
I just called you to say
I'm not ok
I'm not ok
Medicate with whisky and cheap wine
But it don't stop this train wreck in my mind
My friends all say that all will heal in time
But the truth is that don't gimme peace of mind
It's midnight and I'm wasted, so wasted, I'm wasted
I can't believe I'm callin' you up again
I know I might be crazy, so crazy, I'm crazy
I can't believe I'm callin' you just to say

I just called you to say
I'm not ok
