"I say I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
I'm broken
And when its out of control I sat it's under control but it's not
And you know it
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
When being honest is the only way to fix it
There's no failure, no fall
There's no sin you don't already know
So let the truth be told." (This is the lyrics to the chorus of the song)
Its okay to not be okay. There is always going to be times when we don't have things under control and its okay to admit that we don't know what we are doing. Its okay to step out of our comfort zones and ask for help. Whether that is to someone close to us or to God Himself. We can't do everything ourselves because everyone needs help throughout our lives. I am guilty of not doing this myself because I'm of the mindset that I can do things by myself. When I was in school I never wanted to ask for help because I thought I could handle it on my own, but I couldn't. I very nearly didn't graduate high school because I wouldn't ask for that help sometimes and when I did ask for help some teachers would get irritated with me because I wasn't understanding the material after they "tried" to explain how to do it. I did eventually graduate which was a huge relief.
It isn't a weakness to put pride aside and allow people in when things are falling apart. It is better to have someone in our corner to support us when we are going through something then to try to tackle the problem alone. Having a person around to listen when we need to talk or just to distract us for a bit once in awhile would be a lot of help because it would mean that there is someone who cares about us. God is always someone we can turn to without fail because He won't leave us no matter what and will in His own way turn things around for us. If you are going through something right now you can get through this and remember that its okay to not be okay.
