Gold Plated Okays

Hey, I don't know what to say, and I hope that you feel the same
So we can have something to talk about when I'm away
These gold plated dreams are exactly what I need
So I can tell people I meet, how put together I can be, I can be

And I'll make a point to say I'm okay
So you won't worry about me, and you'll go on with your day peacefully

I don't know what you'll think of me, If I wait to call next week
So I can make it up or play it off, like I'm "living the dream"
Maybe I'll put on a movie, bet my friends are out tonight
Cause what I don't know won't kill me, and what I do just might

And I'll make a point to say I'm okay
So you won't worry about me, and you'll go on with your day peacefully

So I'll call you next week, I'll call you next week, I'll call you next week

To make a point to say I'm okay
So you won't worry about me
And you'll get on with your day knowing the kid's okay, he's okay

These gold plated dreams are exactly what I need to know they're hollow underneath
And finally find out what it means to be happy, happy

So hey, I don't know what to say, and I hope that you're doing okay
So we can have someone to talk about when I'm away, I'm away
