• Sometimes when somebody asks if I’m ok
    I just want them to look me in the eye and tell me to tell the truth
    Because sometimes when I say “Oh…yeah I’m fine”
    I just want them to help me or at least
    I may be smiling and laughing on the outside
    But on the inside I’m crying
    With all of my friends and around my family
    I laugh and fool around
    But when I’m by myself
    I burst out crying
    I don’t want them to see the real me due to what they might say and do
    All of the questions they ask
    All of the people they go through just to try to get the truth
    But in the end they get no true answers
    Because the real answer is in me
    I’m not the type of person that likes to talk about their feelings
    I know that that really messes me up and all
    But that’s just the way I am
    Maybe soon I’ll find someone
    That will actually listen to me complain
    And reassure me when I cry
    But until then…I guess I’ll just keep on saying
    “No…I’m fine”
    Even when I’m really not…
