Every single lie of "oh, I'm fine"
Keeps me wide awake at night.
Wide awake at night.
And if they don't believe, I say
"I'm a little tired." " I'm a little tired. "
And when I fall down,
Everybody laughs, everybody laughs.
And I cry with
Every little fight, every little fight.
Can I die?
I wish I was a toy, a doll, a lie
I wish I wasn't real, I wish I wasn't real.
And now I fall down
With tears in my cheeks
And cuts in my skin.
And when I'm right there.
Slowly bleeding out. Slowly bleeding out
I realize. Some one said my name
Said my name on a kind tone.
They say that they are here. They are right here.
Then I fade away, as they try to save my life
Try to save my life
I wake up and I see them start to smile
Start to smile
I smile and cry.
Thinking of a life that is gone.
They care. They live. They feel. They died.
They watch you now
Are you satisfied?
