I've built my walls so high that they had no other option but to come crashing down. I used to think I was immune to tears, but here I am, drowning my sobs within the sound of the running bathwater. I must say, I'm a great actress. All those fake smiles and all that fake laughter. Nobody would have ever guessed that I was a mess on the inside. I thought I was stronger than this.

Walls Come Crashing Down
I've built my walls so high that they had no other option but to come crashing down. I used to think I was immune to tears, but here I am, drowning my sobs within the sound of the running bathwater. I must say, I'm a great actress. All those fake smiles and all that fake laughter. Nobody would have ever guessed that I was a mess on the inside. I thought I was stronger than this.
