Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I put my makeup on like armor Smile so neat, don’t let it falter Answer “I’m good” like it’s rehearsed While my chest keeps carrying the worst I laugh on cue, I play my part Stuff the ache deep in my cart In the mirror, I look whole Behind the glass, I lose control [Pre-Chorus] Don’t ask twice I’ll change the subject I keep it light That’s my method One more nod One more “I’m fine” I fold the hurt Right out of sight [Chorus] Don’t let it show Don’t let it show I’m breaking slow But I won’t show Keep it clean Keep it sweet Hide the bruise Under my sleeve Don’t let it show Don’t let it show (I’m holding on) I won’t let it show [Verse 2] Text back quick, leave no room Hide the storm behind perfume At dinner I can pass for calm Cutting pain with polished palms They say “You seem so unbothered” I nod and swallow, even harder Truth sits heavy in my throat I wear my silence like a coat [Pre-Chorus] Don’t ask twice I’ll change the subject I keep it light That’s my method One more nod One more “I’m fine” I fold the hurt Right out of sight [Chorus] Don’t let it show Don’t let it show I’m breaking slow But I won’t show Keep it clean Keep it sweet Hide the bruise Under my sleeve Don’t let it show Don’t let it show (I’m holding on) I won’t let it show [Bridge] If I bend, don’t break me If I slip, don’t make me Say the words I can’t yet say I’m still here, just halfway Let me cry where no one sees Let me breathe between the pleas I’m not gone, I’m just low I need time to let it go [Final Chorus] Don’t let it show Don’t let it show I’m breaking slow But I won’t show Keep it clean Keep it sweet Hide the bruise Under my sleeve Don’t let it show Don’t let it show (Stay with me) I’m trying not to let it show
