Okay
Sarah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're making this so hard for me
You're always around and you hypnotize me
I try to forget your name, forget your taste, forget your ways
But we crawl back to each other on dark days
And baby I know I know you're no good for me
You're holding me down won't let me fly away
And baby I know your manipulative ways
You're holding me down won't let me fly away
You bring me down with your selfish eyes
You leave me crying by myself at night
Pull me in just to push away
Leave me thinking it'll be okay
You say you love me just to feel me up
You drink too much no I can't fill your cup
Pull me in just push away
Oh I don't think that we will be okay
I push all your buttons
And you push all of mine
We always find a way to start a fight
You're toxic for my health
You're an angel but from deep in hell
I loved you once more than words could say but that's in the past baby
You bring me down with your selfish eyes
You leave me crying by myself at night
Pull me in just to push away
Leave me thinking it'll be okay
You say you love me just to feel me up
You drink too much no I can't fill your cup
Pull me in just push away
Oh I don't think that we will be okay
I've tried everything
These ones just don't feel the same
I know it's all in my brain
I just got to change my ways
We just weren't meant to be
I'll love you endlessly but
You make me go insane so
Let's go our separate ways
You bring me down with your selfish eyes
You leave me crying by myself at night
Pull me in just to push away
Leave me thinking it'll be okay
You say you love me just to feel me up
We drink too much no we can't fill our cups




Pull me in just push away
But one day I will be okay

Overall Meaning

In Sarah Bettens's song "I'm Okay," the lyrics suggest feelings of loneliness and longing for companionship despite being in a crowd of people. The opening lines, "Look for me right when the lights go down, my own little natural hide," imply a desire to find comfort in anonymity amid the audience. However, the following lines "I should be floating on top of the world, but I just keep wondering why" reveals underlying feelings of disconnect and dissatisfaction.


The chorus, "Oooh, I want you to know I'm okay, I just need to know that you're waiting, you're waiting for me" expresses a yearning for emotional support and reassurance from a specific person. Meanwhile, the verse "All that I'm missing is you my love, come find me whenever you can, I'll be the one looking up at the sun, with a picture of you in my hand" reinforces a sense of feeling incomplete without the presence of the loved one.


The overall tone of the song is melancholic, yet carries a hopeful undertone. The lyrics display a need for someone to be present and the desire to have that person waiting, indicating that despite the loneliness, there is still a chance for connection and that everything will turn out okay.

Look for me right when the lights go down
Search for me when the atmosphere turns dark, and the surroundings are dimly lit.


My own little natural hide
My personal space where I can retreat and be comfortable.


I should be floating on top of the world
I am in a position where I should be ecstatically happy.


But I just keep wondering why
But, my mind is still preoccupied with questions and doubts.


I feel more alone in this wonderful crowd
I experience a greater sense of isolation despite being surrounded by a joyous and lively gathering.


And I ever do on my own
More so than when I'm by myself.


I know that this is a place I'm along
I recognize that this is a situation where I am self-reliant.


But I'd rather be coming back home
Nonetheless, I prefer returning to my comfort zone.


Oooh, I want you to know I'm okay
I want you to be aware that I'm coping well.


I just need to know that you're waiting
All I require is assurance that you'll be waiting.


you're waiting
You'll be there for me.


Someone keep saying I could be a star
There's someone persistently suggesting that I possess exceptional talent.


Never quite sure what that means
I'm still unsure of what that entails.


Sounds like ther's something I'm missing right now
It feels like there's an essential aspect that I'm unaware of at this moment.


But who they think I could be
It remains unclear what kind of person they're envisioning me as.


All that I'm missing is you my love
All I lack is your companionship, my beloved.


Come find me whenever you can
Please seek me out whenever you're able.


I'll be the one looking up at the sun
I'll be identifiable as the person gazing at the sun.


with a picture of you in my hand
Holding a photograph of you.


Oooh, I want you to know I'm okay
Again, I want you to be aware that I'm managing well.


I just need to know that you're waiting
But, I do need to know you'll be there.


you're waiting
Ready and anticipating my return.

In case any foreigners like this song but don’t understand it, here’s a translation of the lyrics that I for some reason bothered to write:

We’re all afraid to love and lose each other.
And before we know it, we’re alone again.
We’re searching for something.
Trying to find the meaning of life.
Looking in the mirror, who’s that looking back?
She’s perfect but a voice says she’s imperfect.
Close your eyes.
Don’t be afraid to be yourself.

To all those listening tonight
Has anyone ever told you
You’re good enough.
You’re good enough.
Do you see what I see when I look at you?
It’s crystal clear.
You’re my star.
You’re good enough.

She’s a shadow, just a shadow of herself
She does everything to forget and kill those thoughts
Do you recognize her?
Do you see her when she walks past you?
You know it, know it
It’s too easy to give up
Because you’ve come so far, there’s no reason to stop
I’ll walk with you if you need a hand to guide you in the dark

To all those listening tonight
Has anyone ever told you
You’re good enough.
You’re good enough.
Do you see what I see when I look at you?
It’s crystal clear.
You’re my star.
You’re good enough.

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Let me hear you sing it now
Let me hear you sing it out
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Let me hear you sing it now
You’re good enough.
You’re good enough.
Yeah.

To all those listening tonight
Has anyone ever told you
You’re good enough.
You’re good enough.
Do you see what I see when I look at you?
It’s crystal clear.
You’re my star.
You’re good enough.

To all those listening tonight
Has anyone ever told you
You’re good enough.
You’re good enough.

mange tak

@mlight2717

2021 stadig en stærk fantastisk sang, tekst 🌟🌟❤️❤️🌟🌟🙏🏼

@evigheegaard1795

Denne sang var en af grundene til at jeg vendte mit liv på hovedet. Efter ni år Palle alene i verden, og tre hvor jeg var bange, hadede mig selv og ikke ville leve, fik denne sang mig til at trække gardinerne fra, og vende det hele om fra at være trist og grå hele tiden, til at blive selvsikker og glad for livet!
