I'Ll Be Okay

I’m in the bathroom hiding in the tub
The tears fall as I cry
Creating a salty river from my eye
I have nothing left to say
But I’ll be okay

The screams grow louder
The air feels thicker
Light turns to darkness in a flicker
No, I don’t want to play
But I’ll be okay

I am choking
Choking on all the lies
The lies to my demise
All I can do now is pray
But I’ll be okay

Is that what you want me to say?
