[Verse 1]
Your slippers by the door
Still pointing at the hall
I keep hearing your laugh
Bouncing off the wall
The tea went cold again
By the chipped blue mug
And I sit in that chair
Like I’m waiting for a hug
[Pre-Chorus]
But the room stays still
And my chest goes tight
I can’t shake this weight
I can’t make it right
[Chorus]
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
You went away
And broke my day
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
Grandma, stay
Grandma, stay
(not okay) (not okay)
[Verse 2]
I drove past your house
Couldn’t even turn in
The porch light looked the same
But it felt too thin
I hate how the world
Just kept its pace
While mine fell apart
At a slower pace
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to breathe
I try to stand
But grief hits hard
With a shaking hand
[Chorus]
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
You went away
And broke my day
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
Grandma, stay
Grandma, stay
(not okay) (not okay)
[Bridge]
If I call your name
Will you answer back?
If I shut my eyes
Will I find you flat?
I keep your voice
In the dark at night
Like a match I guard
Till it burns too bright
[Breakdown]
Say my name
One more time
Hold my face
Cross the line
I’m falling fast
I’m coming apart
You were the home
Inside my heart
[Final Chorus]
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
You went away
And broke my day
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
Grandma, stay
Grandma, stay
I’m not okay
I’m not okay
I love you still
I love you still
(not okay) (not okay)
