But what if I'm tired
of pretending I'm alright?
If I just wanna cry,
stop acting like I'm fine.

you could ask hundreds of times
and I would still say
"Yes, I'm alright"

'Cause I know you don't care
don't want to hear the truth
wanna keep your illusion
of my endless good moods

so, come here
look me in my eyes
tell me how jealous you are
about how happy I am

how I'm always smiling
laughing along
how my life is so perfect
and I'm so lovely

but yes, of course you're right
I'll keep your illusion
that everything's fine
