"I'm okay"
So you turn your head away
'Cause really? you're not "okay"
Eyes welled up, they fall silently like rain
I get it. all you want? is to hide the pain
I won't push it, cause I'm in the same place
"get through life!" Forget winning the race
Stay up all night haunted by life
Just so much weight from all this strife
In your fortress, you're forced to think
But to their faces? ha! you never blink
Everything wrong, down inside you push it deep
But wind up every night, crying till you're asleep
I understand completely! thats where I am at..
Walked all over, you're their doormat
So no, i wont make you relive your pain
Although I know, you are not one to complain
I'll leave it alone, I'll let you be
Just please know? you always have me
