I'm doing alright, I tell myself
It was a lie, now it's true
Yet I can still fall deep down
I can still feel this blue
It really does get better
How time has flown
Yet this inexplicable sadness
I have not outgrown
I am happy when I laugh
I am relieved when I cry
Yet these years have not depleted
This blue river behind my eyes

I am happy when I laugh
I am relieved when I cry
Yet these years have not depleted
This blue river behind my eyes
I know it ***** I just felt… full. And had to write. First time in a long time. Idk.
