you ask me what's wrong
I tell you it's nothing
that's a lie.
everything is wrong.
my mind is screaming for help
it's screaming so loud my head hurts
tears roll silently down my cheek.
you notice and ask if I'm sure I'm okay
I tell you it's nothing.
I tell you I'm just tired
I tell you another lie
but I didn't mean to lie
I'm protecting you
I'm protecting you
from me
