Broken

I’m broken, you hear me?

I’m tired of acting like I’m fine when every single day feels like I’m drowning inside my own damn mind.
I wake up every morning trying to convince myself it’ll get better, but it never does.
I’m exhausted, I’m tired, and I hold it all in.

Trying to be strong for everybody else, but who the hell is strong for me?
Who’s there when I break?

People see the calm, they see the smile.
But they don’t see the war going on in my chest every single night.
I scream in silence, I bleed in private, and I still show up like nothing’s wrong.
Because if I don’t, who the hell will?

Trying to be strong for everybody else, but who the hell is strong for me? Who’s there when I break?

I gave everything to people who couldn’t care less if I was okay, and you wonder why I don’t trust a single soul anymore?
I’m not cold, I’m numb. I learned the hard way that caring too much only gets you broken faster.

I’m broken, but I still get UP.
Not because I’m strong, but because I don’t know what else to do, and that’s the part nobody understands.
