Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay (to be happy now)
Tell me it's okay (because I'm happy now)
Tell me it's okay

[Verse 1]
Hey
I think I might move on to something new
But only if you say that's cool with you
Cause I love all the little things you do (I mean did)
Cause
I begged you to show up
And; I asked you to stay
You told me to grow up
So I pushed you away
I tell you "you know what"
And; we fought once again
Then we got back together
Who's kidding who, it's a trend
Because
I like being alone
But i don't like being lonely
I like being home
But I don't like being homies
You know I'm so sorry
For making you feel like you lost me
We're two unstable enablers
Please try not to be salty
Because
All this time & all these tries
Leave questions open ended
& I would rather die
Than try to live with this resentment
So we could try just one more time
To make sure that we meant it
Or we could cut our losses
Before we blow up & dead it
So

[Hook]
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay (to be happy now)
Tell me it's okay (because I'm happy now)
Tell me it's okay

[Verse 2]
Hey
It's okay to say you're not okay
It's not okay to turn and walk away
We've got problems that we need to face
If you love me, then say it
If you trust me, then show it
If you don't mean it, save it
If you do mean it, own it
You gotta be happy alone
To be happy together
You gotta lose something u know
To learn how to get better
I've been working, you've been hurting
I've been curving, you've been swerving
I've been sleeping, you've been creeping
Now you got me creeped, I'm leaving
I think about you
I dream about you
I smile about you
I cry about you
I lie about you
I'm fine without you
I lied that's not true
I'd die without you
Our love is a war, we use words as our weapons
So either ur real or I'm gone in a second
These thoughts that we have & these feelings we kept in
Make resent & regret, upset & a severance
You dont fuck with ultimatums
Have to face it
Loves contagious
Also dangerous
Leaves you damaged
Make it painless
Now dont make sense
Tried to saved it
Please please please

[Hook]
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay (to be happy now)
Tell me it's okay (because I'm happy now)
Tell me it's okay

gnash is an American producer, singer, songwriter, who started out as a DJ. His stage name comes from a shortening of his real name Garett Nash.

He stated he transitioned from DJing to producing his own music by having “a bunch of feelings I wanted to get off my chest and all my friends and family were tried of hearing me talk about it, so I started making music about it instead.”

His best-known song “i hate u, i love u” is an interpolation of Olivia O'Briens’s “hate u love u” and peaked at #10 in the Billboard Hot 100 and on #1 in the national charts of Australia and Israel.
