a million words inside my head
yet I cannot voice them out
promise me you'll listen
and then I'll tell you everything

i pretend as if I'm fine, you ask me how I am, and I'll smile to show that I'm ok why did you fall for my lies? i kept on lying, but you couldn't see that, i was hurting all around, my surroundings were numb, but no one noticed, i wish someone told me that i was doing okay, that I did well, and that it was going to be okay, but no one stepped forward, i was drowning in my own lies, i shouldn't blame you because I was the one who lied, but I wish you saw me and my struggles, i wish you noticed my lies, pain, and suffering, but how can I blame you? i never spoke up, I was scared of your reaction, looking around, I saw that you were hurting too, you're pain was greater than mine, so I pretended to act fine, because your pain was greater than mine, I subdued mine if I pretended to be fine, would my pain disappear? i was wrong again, I shouldn't have done that why didn't you tell me before that saving myself came before saving everyone else? i was drowning, but you failed to see that, i hope you can now comfort me, pat me on my back and tell me that I did well, we all need encouraging words, I'm not the only one, i wish I knew before that the world isn't perfect, but it's not so bad, we're all hurting but we hide our pain, behind fake smiles and masks, why do we do that? why do we say we're okay, when we're the opposite of it? can't anyone see behind our cracks or we immune towards it, you won't believe me, but deep down
we're

This is quite messy, but I like it. There are words that we all want to hear sometimes, even if we're the ones who have to deliver them to ourselves. Tbh, this was inspired by a couple of songs, and quotes that I've read over a long time, and I fell in love with them <3
