I lie when I say I am busy.
I lie when I say I am okay.
Believe me! Why don't you believe me?!

I lie when I say I am busy
In reality, I am just laying on my bed
In reality, I wanna go out
But who can when their mental health is bad.

I lie when I say I am okay
When in reality I am fine on the outside while on the inside, I am dying inside.
When I say I am fine, I am really not. 
I don't want people to hear what I say because what if they don't believe me.

Believe me! Why don't you believe me?!
I need you to believe me because I tell the truth when I say I am broken.
I believed you would believe me because if I did not, I would not have told you.
I need you to believe me. Believe me! I am telling the truth! Believe me, that's all I want!
