I'm Not Ok
Are you ok?
the words cut at me...
Are you ok?
a question I daren't answer...
Are you ok?
no, can't you see,
I'm far from ok.
I hide, in plain sight
no one sees the pain...
no one sees the despair...
Behind these eyes
I'm coming undone
tumbling, falling...
Behind the lies
I'm dying
inside, I'm crying...
I'm not ok.
words I long to say...
I'm not ok.
pain I hide so well...
I'm not ok.
yet, you do not see,
I'm fading away.
I hide my broken heart...
I hide my scarrs...
Behind these eyes
I'm coming undone
tumbling, falling...
Behind the lies
I'm dying
Inside, I'm crying...
Kill me.
I think as I hide...
Kill me.
In notebooks you won't find...
Kill me.
you hear me,
as I whisper, in my dreams
and then you realize...
I'm not ok...
