I'm laughing with everyone now

I'm talking normally

Suddenly I don't know how

I don't know how to breathe


My throat feels tight

And my living weakens me

So, when we're walking alright

I suddenly freeze


It hurts not to have to cry

In front of people's eyes

Who don't know the things that I

Don't let them see


The dam breaks when I close the door

I can't hold it anymore

And my eyes let go of my tears


Dear light of my life

You are my biggest fear

Last tear before I die

Will you be there for me?
