[Verse 1 - low, tense, close vocal, minimal instruments]
No one can tell
I’m not okay
I say I’m good
Like every day
Keep it together
Keep it tight
No one sees
What it’s like at night
Same routine
Nothing new
Play my part
Like I’m supposed to
---
[Pre-Chorus - tension rising, restrained]
I hold it in
I don’t let go
If I slow down
It starts to show
---
[Chorus - darker, heavier, controlled punch]
No one can tell
I’m not okay
I drag it out
Another day
Bury it deep
Let it stay
So no one knows
I’m not okay
---
[Verse 2 - heavier, grounded, more bite]
Answer calls
Say I’m fine
Crack a smile
Every time
Say what they need
Keep them calm
While I’m breaking
Underneath it all
Don’t say a word
Don’t let it slip
Hold it down
Lock it in
---
[Pre-Chorus - stronger pressure]
I keep it straight
I keep control
But it gets louder
When I’m alone
---
[Chorus - bigger, heavier]
No one can tell
I’m not okay
I drag it out
Another day
Bury it deep
Let it stay
So no one knows
I’m not okay
---
[Bridge - stripped, haunting]
It’s quiet now
No one around
And everything
Starts breaking down
---
[Break - near silence, breathy]
I’m tired…
Of holding it…
---
[Final Chorus - emotional peak, controlled power]
No one can tell
I’m not okay
I drag it out
Another day
Bury it deep
Let it stay
So no one knows
I’m not okay
---
[Outro - low, unresolved]
No one knows…
