Even the strongest breakdown Human nature catches up with them They try to hide their tears They say I'm strong. How can that be? When I feel suffocated with my own breath I feel cold, and empty and alone Even in a room full of people I put on a mask everytime. I'm tired of masking I'm tired of wearing that version It kills me inside. This is the only place I can be myself. The only place that feels like home The only place, I let tears flow I'm trying...I'm trying. G-o-d...I.I.I I'm try- - -
