I keep telling myself that I'll be fine,
but something is amiss,
is it religious bliss?

Maybe I need a Miss
so I can get kissed,
or remind me that I'm missed.

Trapped in a bed that's not even mine
I've been put down too many times,
Lived too many lives, lost too many loves,
but I'll be fine.

I tell myself that I love myself--
Is it really true?
Will I ever be myself without you?

I'm dying to find the answer--
sometimes it feels like cancer
swelling in my throat
hearing nothing except a croak.
I'll be fine.

Superego instills doubt in my mind
Am I really fine?
I'll just keep to myself--

Keep wearing my "plastic" smile
struggling to share my feelings with
the ones who care about me.

I'm know I'm not fine,
but I will be only when the closed chambers
of my heart open once again.
Trying to find myself, my true self. I'm just a little lost is all.
