I'm Fine

Give me a reason to keep believing that everything isn't misleading

And when I smile for you the skies are no longer gray

Cause Im a tear drop away from crying

And a few breaths away from dying

But maybe

Just maybe

If I pretend to be happy long enough

I might learn to be happy

But I just want to go one day

Just one

Without pretending to be happy

I know what it's like to die

I know how hard it is to smile

When all you want to do is frown

I know how to inflict pain on the outside

To make things numb on the inside

People think I'm so strong

And I'm so happy

When I'm only pretending nothing is wrong

Behind these innocent smiles I press

Lay words

Words that go unsaid

Words of love anger and hate

All repeating themselves inside my head

Don't be so fooled by the smile faking

Because inside I'm just breaking

Little by little

I just want to end it all

Should it be a trip?

Or should I fall

Will someone be there to catch me

Or will I be there forever

Lying without a sound

And as a strong girl

I keep my stuff in line

With tears running

I always seem to manage

To spit the simple words

I'm fine.
