It's Ok
d.p. Lyrics

Buried in the ground
The singer is expressing their feeling of being trapped or stuck in a bad situation.

Pressure you place in a mound
The singer is highlighting the additional stress that others are placing on them, making their situation worse.

Dirt is the only thing that surrounds
The singer feels isolated and trapped with no way out.

This rotting corpse won't make a sound
The artist feels like they are dead inside and have lost their voice or ability to speak up.

And everyone tells me I'm alright
Despite the artist feeling like their situation is bad, others are telling them that everything is fine, which is frustrating and invalidating.

What could be wrong
Others are dismissing the singer's concerns and are ignoring obvious problems.

Such a perfect life
The singer feels like they are expected to have a perfect life or appear perfect on the outside, despite things being bad on the inside.

And I don't think I'll make it another night
The artist is expressing their suicidal thoughts and feelings of hopelessness.

I can no longer fake around my despite
The artist cannot pretend that everything is okay anymore and is forced to confront their problems head-on.

And you try to tell me it's ok
Others are still telling the artist to calm down and that everything will be okay, despite their growing concerns and struggles.

You're less forgiving than the blade
The singer is more forgiving of themselves for their mistakes than others, who are quick to judge and blame.

One mistake and put me to shame
The artist feels like they will be judged and criticized harshly for making even a small mistake.

I've drowned in my tears and then the lake
The singer feels overwhelmed and like they are slowly drowning, unable to escape their problems and emotions.
