Ignore the twitch — it’s just for show I’m fine, thanks — couldn’t be better Especially when I’m lying low Verse 2 I see my ex at the grocery store Hide behind the frozen corn He looks happy, or maybe broke Either way, I didn’t choke My mom still asks about grandkids I smile and say, “maybe next trip” My therapist says I’ve made great strides I nod and think about french fries Chorus But I’m fine, thanks — just a little unraveling Wearing my trauma like vintage threads Killing it daily — emotionally dazzling Just don’t look too close at my meds I’ve got it handled, I swear I do You’re not buying it? Well, me too I’m fine, thanks — like a ticking clock With glitter on the cracks and a broken lock Bridge Don’t mistake this grin for peace It’s just the pause between two screams But I’ve got playlists and a plan And thirty-two unread messages from “Dan” Final Chorus I’m fine, thanks — haven’t burned it down Still showing up in this charming frown Doing amazing — on a curve Low bar, high stress, more wine, less nerve But I made the bed and fed the cat And that’s enough for where I’m at I’m fine, thanks — at least today Ask again after I misplace my name
