I’m Fine

Verse 1

My heartbeat’s racing out of line,

But I just laugh and say I’m fine.

You see the calm, you see control,

Not the trembling hands I try to hold.

Pre-Chorus

It’s easier to fake the day,

Than explain the pain that never goes away.

Chorus

I say “I’m fine” while my body is screaming,

Breath comes shallow, but I keep on repeating.

You’ll never see the war in my mind,

So I’ll smile and I’ll say—

“I’m fine.”

Verse 2

The room spins fast, the floor pulls down,

But I won’t let you see me drown.

I bite my tongue, I hide the fight,

And pray my voice won’t crack tonight.

Pre-Chorus

If I told you what’s inside,

Would you believe the truth, or think I’ve lied?

Chorus

I say “I’m fine” while my body is screaming,

Breath comes shallow, but I keep on repeating.

You’ll never see the war in my mind,

So I’ll smile and I’ll say—

“I’m fine.”

Bridge

My pulse is pounding like a drum,

But the words I need just never come.

So I wear this mask another time,

And bury myself in “I’m fine.”

Chorus

I say “I’m fine” while my body is screaming,

Breath comes shallow, but I keep on repeating.

You’ll never know the truth I hide,

So I’ll smile and I’ll say—

“I’m fine.”

Outro

I’m fine…

I’m fine…

I’m fine…
