You are brave they say
yes, you are
but do they know how it feels to
try hard?
yes, I'm trying hard
very hard
to be brave on the outside
but do they know how it feels to be
crumbled from the inside?
to pretend everything will be fine
when you know it won't;
to become other's strength
when you know you lack it
do they know how it feels to try hard?
yes, I'm trying hard.
