You say you're ok so I say you're ok, yo
You tell me you're ok so I say you're ok, yo
You never let anything show - I've yet to see a crack in your armour
Well I know this is not how you wanted things to go down
With your feet pointed backwards; your head turned around
But you say it's the right way - I know it's the wrong way, yo
You think it's the right way - I know that you're going the wrong way, yo
It doesn't take a genius to notice how many times you stare at the ground
You do it so often now I'm starting to wonder...
Why can't you be fragile like the rest of us?
Tired of seeing your faith and trust shaken to nothing?
'Cause I want to be there when you're coming down
Just so I can be around to offer your something other than my usual nothing
Which is all you allow me to give
Still you say you're ok so I say you're ok, yo
You tell me that everything's ok so I say whatever, you're ok, yo
Is there something that you want me to know?
'Cause I feel you strapped to the railroad and I don't see a way out for you
Tell me, what can I do?
Either take it or leave it 'cause I'm not getting through, no
The streets are all empty - I know
And your world keeps on spinning alone
But you don't want to deal 'cause to say makes it real
Come on, talk to me honestly
Why can't you be fragile like the rest of us?
Tired of seeing your faith and trust shaken to nothing?
'Cause I want to be there when you're coming down
Just so I can be around to offer your something other than my usual nothing
Which is all you allow me to give
