When I wake in the morning
I want to blow into pieces
I want more than just okay, more than just okay
When I’m up with the sunrise
I want more than just the blue skies
I want more than just okay, more than just okay

I’m not giving up, giving up, not giving up now
I’m not giving up, giving up, not backing down
More than fine
More than bent on getting by
More than fine
More than just okay

When I’m lit with the sunshine
I want more than just a good time
I want more than just okay, more than just okay
Okay

I’m not giving up, giving up, not giving up now
I’m not giving up, giving up, not selling out.
More than fine
More than bent on getting by
More than fine
More than just okay
More than fine
More than bent on getting by
More than fine
More than just okay

More than oceans away from the dawn
More than oceans away from the dawn
More than oceans away from who we are
More than oceans
More than oceans, yeah

More than fine
More than bent on getting by
More than fine
More than just okay
Okay, okay, okay, fine
More than bent on getting by
More than fine
More than just okay

    General Comment:First of all, the song lyrics on the actual CD cover were put in the wrong order. just thought I'd mention it.
    I didn't like this song as much as the others in this album. Probably because they overplayed it on the radio when it came out. (woof)
    But it still "ROX" (cause it's SF)

    General Comment:"I want to blow into pieces."
    he wants to 'burn out bright' for lack of better words.
    he wants more in life, more than just OKAY!

    "More than oceans away from who we are"
    don't be oceans away from who you are. that is too far. don't settle. find you and be yourself.

    General Comment:I like this song a lot. It is awesome. It sais to me that there is more out there in the world then just being okay and barely getting by. There is so much more, and it's up to us to find it. We shouldn't settle for anything less then total happiness and joy. Don't settle for just okay... that's what it means to me.

    General Comment:i love this song. like everyone else said, it means wanting to make the most of life - he's not going to give up trying to make things 'more than just ok.'

    'when i'm up with the sunrise, i want more than just blue skies'
    - blue skies are beautiful, but he wants MORE than that. he wants to see a SUNRISE! this is like a metaphor for life - you can make the most of things and do MUCH better than ok... ok?
