Looking so young and healthy
The hardest thing i do
Feeling so weak and broken
All the pain I hide from you
My body attacks itself
Noone understands the hand i was delt

I was raised to never be weak
It was a sign of defeat
Silence the hurt locking it away
Just try to make it through each day

Walking makes me ache
Lifting makes me shake
Feet touching the floor
I have to make myself move to the door

Living in fear of flare
Relapse is part of the deal
Don't have a disease you can see
The battle is inside of me
