I\'m Really Not

When I say I\'m okay, I\'m really not 

I\'m just suppressing it all inside

Look at the scars and see that I want more 

Yet, something always holds me back 

 

All the tears I try not to cry 

Though all I want to do is cry 

Wishing I never took another breath 

 

Nobody comprehends me 

Nobody comprehends the pain 

They just think that it\'s just a phase 

I wish they could walk a mile in my shoes 

 

Perhaps they would see another side of things 

Perhaps they would see the enticement

These scars on my body is what I yearn for

Perhaps they would have fathomed out that I\'m not okay 

 

That anything and everything I do or say 

Never is good enough for anybody 

That I\'m just ready to break down 

And when I say I\'m okay, I\'m really not 

Look at the visible scars on my body fading 

Let it be known that I\'m ready to give in 

Do when I say I\'m okay, I\'m really not
