How many chains to break

How many smiles to fake

Never anticipate

The time that it might take

To finally

Be fine

To maybe get my mind

To heal

For my heart

To beat

So I can feel

The ache

I might decide to not forget today

Might not let these feelings float away

My face might not show "Okay"

Like that's what I'm supposed to say

That I'm fine

Everything with my mind

Is chill

My heart's

Not there

So I don't feel

The ache

Tears fall faster than you think

The world seems further when you blink

Diluted dreams are what I drink

Then let my pain go down the sink

They think I'm fine

Nothing in my mind's

Revealed

Thoughts in the dark concealed

So my heart won't feel

The ache
