Fine
They ask me if I'm fine
I end up just lying
I'm telling them everything is alright
I even lie to my best friend
She doesn't see through the fake facade
They don't care about my life
So why bother trying
When I can continue to just lie
And be the happy little girl I was years ago
To make them all happy
And tell them I'm just fine
Whenever someone asks me if I'm okay
When in reality I'm at the starting line
For the race of my life
Trying to outrace the monsters under my bed
Needing to make it to the end
To break the ribbon at the finish line
Without breaking down
Over the littlest thing
Not going to let them win
I'm never going to let them back in
Even if I'm not fine
I don't want them to cause any more damage then I already have
By just saying I'm fine
