By day I'm okay
I smile, laugh, and say
All the right things that make them believe
But then the day ends and I leave
I go home and I'm alone
Alone with my demons and their violent tone
Quite the wait for the right time
To crawl their way back into my mind
Point out my flaws and how I'm broken
Encouraging my fears never spoken
How others word tear my apart
How they get buried deep in my heart
So by night I'm not alright
Crying alone holding the blade tight
Running the sharp metal against my skin
Letting go of the pain harbored with in
Yet I'm carful never to go to deep
So after I can cry myself to sleep
But in the morning I wake up and say
Make them all believe I'm okay
