"Everything's been perfect."

"Everything's been fine."

Oh, please tell me

You know that I'm lying.

"I feel so much better!"

"I feel so alive!"

Oh, come on.

Don't you see it in my eyes?

"I haven't made a scratch!"

"Oh, it's just the cat."

Please,

Isn't it obvious?

"I haven't lost a pound!"

"I love to eat!"

Oh, can't you see?

I'm losing strength.

"I feel so awake!"

"I've been getting so much sleep!"

Oh, come on!

You're killing me.

"I can't wait to grow up!"

"I love life!"

Can you not see

The misery that dwells inside me?

I won't say another word.

That was my last lie.

I won't keep fighting.

Finally I will die.

Unfortunately for me,

You'll never know why.
