He says he's fine, they pry but he says he's alright. He walks alone for a minute with tears ready to storm by his face. But he made a promise to his self he's in a better mental place. The struggle to play "that man"
But it's impossible for him to stand. Without a crutch, found him drinking too much.

Silent sobs happens way too much
Desperate for a comfortable touch
Shhhhhhh and hush
You're alright calm down with no rush

He's determined to be okay
Barely makes it through the day
Nothing much to say
