Chorus]
I been dying on the inside, smiling on the out
Demons in my head, and they won’t let me out
Told my mama I’m okay, but I’m drowning in doubt
They love you when you gone, that’s what life all about
[Verse 1]
I put a mask on my pain, fake a laugh for the crowd
But when the lights go dim, I can’t silence the sound
Voices in my head like a melody loud
Tryna find a way to heaven but I’m hell-bound
I told my brother hold on, but I’m slipping away
Prayin’ for the sunrise, but I’m stuck in the grey
They say real ones never fold, but I’m breaking today
Got a heart full of scars, and it’s fading away
[Chorus]
I been dying on the inside, smiling on the out
Demons in my head, and they won’t let me out
Told my mama I’m okay, but I’m drowning in doubt
They love you when you gone, that’s what life all about
[Verse 2]
I sip pain in a double cup
Hoping I don’t double up
Heartbreak in my blood, I ain’t never felt enough
They be sayin’ “keep ya head up”
But it’s harder when ya fed up
I gave love, got hate back
Told my story, they played that
Said I’m crazy, well maybe I’m way past
Fell in love with the darkness, I lay back
[Bridge]
I ain’t tryna die, but I’m living like I don’t care
If I disappear tonight, would you even be aware?
I’m just a soul with a burden that I can’t share
Tears in my eyes with a blank stare
[Chorus]
I been dying on the inside, smiling on the out
Demons in my head, and they won’t let me out
Told my mama I’m okay, but I’m drowning in doubt
They love you when you gone, that’s what life all about
[Outro]
I’m broken inside…
I’m broken inside…
I’m broken inside…
And I can’t run from my mind
