On the outside I am calm,
no care, no feeling, no pain.
On the inside I am screaming,
crying with no tears left to drain.
I thought I had direction,
and on the surface it seems that I do.
But I'm lost and looking for signs,
on a road that doesn't go thru.
I want to break down so badly,
but I must keep appearances up.
Because if I don't then they'll see me,
and I won't be seen to give up.
I just don't know how to keep going,
to keep my head up high.
When I feel so low
all I want to do is cry.
