  • I bought that pillow on the couch 'cause it reminded
    Me of the colors on your wall, I thought you'd like it
    I don't want this to be my last time in this apartment, ooh
    You took a day and made some space for me to move in
    Said I could take the bottom drawer so that's what I did
    You told me I was all you want so now what's changed it? Ooh

    Is it wrong to think you're sadistic?
    I know you're sleeping perfect
    While I'm over here hurting

    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    I wish I could tell myself that at night
    I'm gonna be okay, right? (yeah)

    Don't check my phone
    I know for sure you haven't called me
    I fill my days with stupid shit to keep me busy
    Instead of you
    I'm ending every night with whiskey, ooh

    Is it wrong to think you're sadistic?
    I know you're sleeping perfect
    While I'm over here hurting

    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    I wish I could tell myself that at night
    I'm gonna be okay, right?

    And if I go insane (if I go insane)
    I, I got you to blame, right? (I got you to blame)
    At least that's what I tell myself at night
    I'm gonna be okay, right? (I'm gonna be okay)

    Ooh
    I kinda knew this would hurt just a little too much, ooh
    Ooh
    I kinda knew this would hurt just a little too much

    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    I wish I could tell myself that at night
    I'm gonna be okay, right?

    And if I go insane
    (If I go insane)
    I, I got you to blame, right?
    (If I do, if I do)
    At least that's what I tell myself at night
    I'm gonna be okay, right?
    (Gonna be okay)
    Right, right? Writer/s: Julia Michaels, Paul Klein
