You think I’m fine when I wear this mask,
But I’m drowning in silence, can’t you see the cracks?
Every drink and smoke, it’s just a disguise,
I’m fighting these battles, but they’re buried inside.
You want to help, but I push you away,
Anger fills the void, it’s hard to convey,
I’m tired of pretending, tired of the game,
Lost in my thoughts, feeling no shame.
So don’t say you understand, don’t tell me it’s okay,
You don’t know this pain, can’t take it away,
I’m screaming inside, but there's no one to hear,
Trapped in this chaos, consumed by my fear.
I’m reaching for something but don’t know what’s real,
Bottling anger, can’t find a way to heal,
So I shut everyone out, they won’t see me break,
I'm holding this weight, but it’s mine to take.
Don’t ask if I’m fine, I don’t want the lies,
I’m fighting my demons, no need for goodbyes,
I’m searching for peace in this raging storm,
In this anger, I’m finding a way to transform.
