Everyone says
That it will all be okay
And that everyone will stay
Is that really the way?
I can't do this alone

But what happens
When they take it all for real
You fake a smile you don't feel
Set your resolve like steel
You've got to press on through.

It's come again
I am drowning on my own
I am lost and feel alone
My heart feels cold like stone
I can't do it this time

It was a fluke
How I survived for this long
Pretending to be strong
Just walking on along
Can't do this anymore
More lies, more lies.
