In Case You Were Wondering...

In case you were wondering... I'm not okay...But I say I am. You just don't know it. And you sure can't see it. Cause on the outside, I'm fine. But on the inside...I'm bleeding. I fake a smile, I fake a laugh. Just so you can't figure me out. In case you were wondering... I'm not okay...But I say I am. But what you don't know can't hurt you right? I'm in pain, I have breakdowns, I cry myself to sleep at night. But you don't know that. So you think I'm fine. See how this all works? Your not worried, your not hurt. But I am. In case you were wondering... I'm not okay...But I say I am. Sometimes I wish I could just tell you how I feel. Maybe then you would really understand. Maybe then you would be smart enogh to know that when I say "I'm fine...Really." You'll ask me over and over until I tell you the truth. But I can't tell you how I feel. So you think I'm okay. You think I'm happy. Well I got news for you. In case you were wondering... I'M NOT.
