I'm Okay...(Help Me)
I'm okay,
When I refuse to look you in the eye.
I'm okay,
When I hide in the shadows.
I'm okay,
When I hide behind my fringe.
I'm okay,
When the world is ignoring me.
I'm okay,
When I shut you out.
I'm okay,
When you ask me, and walk away.
I'm okay,
When I try and convince myself that I am.
I'm okay,
When I want to die.
I'm okay,
When I have a my mood swings.
I'm okay,
When I can't even look at myself.
I'm okay,
When I don't ask for help.
I'm okay,
When I pretend to smile.
I'm okay,
When I refuse to tell you what is wrong.
I'm okay,
When I am to afraid to tell you what is wrong.
I'm okay,
When I am really falling apart.
