Everyone is depending on me
I’m fine
Deep down inside
I’m breaking down
Mind and body completely drained out
I smile like everything is okay
Yes! I’m good
Reality is
I just want to runaway
Don’t look back
Everyone is depending on you
So you can’t do that
Fight back pains and body aches
Don’t show your tears
Don’t show your exhaustion
Everyone is depending on you
You got to be ok
Being pulled left and right
At the same time
Stretch so thin
Too weak to fight
No longer cheerful
I tried my hardest
But I can’t say no
Because everyone is depending on me
