I am drowning,
Drowning in my thoughts,
Drowning in my tears,
I am drowning from all the words around me
I am lost.
Everyone asks me "Are you okay?"
Yes, I'd answer.
But I know deep inside how much I suffer
From all the pain, I can't be better
Why am I like this?
It shows that I'm a happy person
I smile, I laugh, but I'm different inside.
I hide the pain that I put aside
Not showing the real me,
Do I even know me?
I am lost in these thoughts that I don't even know myself,
From all these questions, I feel overwhelmed.
I don't know who I am,
Don't know the real me.
Being outside I still can't feel free.
I have to hide behind a smile,
Pushing the pain deep down,
Hiding every time I cry.
I feel blue, but as soon as someone could see, I put on a smile.
A smile that somehow tricks them,
A smile that they think I'm okay.
