I'm tired, I'm done
I just want to fall down
I'm through acting like I'm fine when I'm not
Putting a smile on my face when inside I'm just a huge fucked up knot
I just want to run away and hide
I'm tired of hiding the fact I cried
I've given you all my light, inside I'm drowning
All this madness is overflowing
And I'm just done with pretending
Have you ever just wanted to sleep forever
Or escape and fly to neverland
I'm grown up now, but just in numbers
Inside I'm still a little girl who dreams of pretty colours
That same girl who grew up too fast
Is inside silently residing... waiting
I act fine, I smile, I laugh
It's all fake, just a mask
Slowly I'm being crushed by the pressures around me
Everyday I wonder if someone will finally see through me
With every breath, every "I'm fine"
Inside I'm screaming a little louder
One day I'm scared that I'll be the one yelling
Honestly there's just no telling
That little girl inside is getting stronger
