"Tell Me It's Okay" lyrics - PARAMORE

Maybe it's been years since I genuinely smiled
Maybe it's been years since I wanted to be a part of anything
Well, lately I've been good, you know I've actually been great
Man, I even laughed a little today, oh so strange, so strange

[Chorus:]
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay

Thought it was my right to be as sorry as I wanted to be
I wasted all my teenage years being a misery factory
But something had to give, I had to finally see the light
I think at 23 it's time to practice what I preach
And what I preach is

[Chorus:]
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay

[Bridge:]
All my wasted hope, I let go when I should've held tighter
And now when the is sun out
I let it burn, not afraid to feel it shine on me

It's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay

[Chorus:]
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, my life is finally leveling out, so
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay to be happy now, my life is finally leveling out, so
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
