This is how it feels when you try to explain mental illness to someone who won't/can't really understand.
Nobody sees the hurt inside.
Because I hide it with a smile.
Nobody knows the pain I feel
I've been feeling for a while
Verse 2
Nobody's tried to fight
The thoughts that come at night.
Nobody knows how to breathe
When you're not alright
Chorus
And it seems like i'm okay
And it seems i'm doing fine
But i'm barely holding everything in
It's tearing up my mind.
Verse 3
Nobody thinks that it's okay
When the pain will paralyze
Nobody knows that the darkness helps
When sun's blazing in the skys
Chorus
And it seems like i'm okay
And it seems i'm doing fine
But i'm barely holding everything in
It's tearing up my mind.
Bridge
It gets hard to move
And your body aches
And you're standing still
When one's mind it breaks
And you're falling fast
But you're holding on
But nobody sees, your strength to carry on.
Verse 4
Each day live I've won
Each step's a marathon
But nobody cheers me on
Would they notice if I'm gone.
Chorus
And it seems like i'm okay
And it seems i'm doing fine
But i'm barely holding everything in
It's tearing up my mind.
Verse 1 repeat
Nobody sees the hurt inside.
Because I hide it with a smile.
Nobody knows the pain I feel
I've been feeling for a while
Nobody knows...
