i'm happy for you
i'm smiling for you
i'd do anything
for you for you

it's always for you
and never or me
i need it to stop
so let me tell you please

i'm always sad
and i'm always lonely
but i can't tell you
that i'm breaking slowly

closed doors
locked in, no keys
keeping my feelings hidden
there is no ease

i need it to stop
and i want to be able
to open up but,
my feelings are fatal
(my feelings are fatal)

how many times
must i keep it inside
i need to let go
and i swear that i've tried

but opening up
means trusting others
and that's just too much,
i don't want to bother

so i'll keep it inside
and bury it deep
i know it's not healthy
but you won't hear a peep

though i'm always sad
and i'm always lonely
i could never tell you
that i'm breaking slowly

closed doors
locked in, no keys
keeping my feelings hidden
there is no ease

i need it to stop
and i want to be able
to open up but,
my feelings are fatal
(my feelings are fatal)
