I said I'm fucking fine,
But deep inside, I'm not okay.
I wear a mask, a perfect disguise,
Hiding my pain every single day.

I plaster on a smile,
And pretend that all is well.
But inside, my heart is breaking,
As I slowly descend into my personal hell.

I put on a brave face,
And say I don't need any help.
But the truth is, I'm drowning,
In the darkness where I silently yelp.

I said I'm fucking fine,
But tears silently fall down my face.
I try to hold it all together,
But inside, I'm losing the race.

I push people away,
Afraid to let them see the real me.
I build up walls around my heart,
To protect it from further injury.

I said I'm fucking fine,
But the truth is, I'm falling apart.
I long for someone to save me,
To mend my shattered heart.
