Hold yourself together I keep telling myself this
And I'm trying really, my hands clenched into fistsTears threatening to fall from glazed over eyes
So many things unsaid, sore throat from these internal criesI've been doing so good so far and I've been holding it down
Nobody's aware of how I feel, buried, six feet undergroundClearly they can't see past my obviously flawful facade
I'm a puppet, a mime playing a messed up game of charadeHold it together, breathe in breathe out, keep calm
Everyone thinks they know me but they don't know who I amI'm broken, depressed, trying to keep them away
I'm cracking, hurting, crying everydayBut I just can't let the pain through these creases
They'd stay away from me if only they knew my hatredKnew how useless, unmemorable, incomplete I feel
I wish I could just wake up front this nightmare, this dreamI just, I just don't want to crash now
I can't keep it in forever, I don't know how...
