Overcoming Troubled Waters

I'm Fine

How long must I hide behind these lies

Of telling everyone I'm fine

When I'm really dying inside

From all the tears I have not cried

I'm looking for a release or way out

But I can't seem to find any different route

So I give up on the fight

Of trying to make sure your judgemental ideas about me aren't right

And I stare at my arm filled with scars that will never fade

Then take a deep breath and pick up my blade

And as I drag it across my skin

I'm finally able to release all my pain and sorrow from within
