Ok Then Songtext
von Matt Watson

Oops, now there′s a happy accident
An accident that could lead to opportunity

I get sentimental when I'm sippin′ whiskey
Watchin' Malcolm In the Middle
Reminiscin' on some visions that are pretty cool
When I was back in school
Didn′t know myself back then
But maybe, yeah, I did

I′m on the couch in the living room
Scared to sleep upstairs alone
Thunderstorm outside, it's 3 a.m., I got the TV on
Feeling somewhere in between, staring at the flashing screen
Didn′t know how hard this shit could be when I was seventeen

You don't know my pain
You don′t know my game
You just know my name
You just know my face
You know what I say


Would you even recognize me anymore?
I don't know
I think you would, but maybe you don′t

Don't even know
No, you don't even know
No, you don′t even know
No, you don′t even know
Don't even know
No, you don′t even know
No, you don't


(One, two, three, four)
I′m lookin' for that green path where I′m okay then
I'm lookin' for that after school where I′m okay then
Back in my room that no longer is around
Wishin′ for that blue hour, wishin' I could be there now
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
No way
No way

Come home late from work, uniform is on the floor
Messaging with somebody I don′t even know anymore
It's a locked door and I can′t find the key
A place that now only exists inside my memory
College applications in the mail
Driving my mom's Honda to the beach when I feel overwhelmed
Parking in that parking lot at night, right by the bridge
Watch the blinking lights out at sea, counting ships, I′m only seventeen
Now I'm twenty-six, how did I get there to this?
I get on Facebook and see everyone I know having kids
Did I fall behind and now the ship has sailed?
Or did I leap ahead? Is my future dead? I don't know
Will my grandkids think that I was cool?
Or will they just see a dude who made some videos
And dropped out of school?
I don′t know, no
No, I don′t know
Would you let me know?
Could you let me know?

I'm lookin′ for that green path where I'm okay then
I′m lookin' for that after school where I′m okay then
Back in my room that no longer is around
Wishin' for that blue hour, wishin' I could be there now
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
Okay then
No way
No way

(I get sentimental when I′m sippin′ whiskey
