You put on a smile
You act like your fun
Your thoughts run away
In your head you’re all done.
You say you’re okay
You know it’s a lie
You get into bed
Then that’s when you cry.
You think you’re being stupid
There’s so much frustration
You start to drift away
Into a world of isolation.
You’re thinking way to much
About our life and our society
All these thoughts in your head
But you know it’s this anxiety.
You can’t shake it off
And it won’t go away
Yet you get up every morning
And carry on with your day.
You’re constantly tired
You struggle to wake
You act like it’s fine
But you know you’re being fake.
Why is this me?
Why do I feel so alone?
All these questions I have
But I don’t like to moan.
It’s time to speak up
It’s now time to say
It’s ok to get help
There’s always a way.
