Everyday the same routine
Smiling at everyone I meet
Nobody seeswhat's underneath
These feelings Ican't speak
A little drop falls in my chest
Quietly, without a sound
It accumulates in the silence
Untilit's all I hear
Emotion drips, drip by drip
A gallon in my throat
Nobody notices the flood
Inside the quiet one
I swallow it down, swallow it down
PretendingI'm okay
Late nights, stare at the ceiling
Mind going places with no healing
All the words I left unsaid
Growing roots inside my head
A little drop falls in my chest
Slowly filling up the cracks
Every smile I fake today
Is one more drop it stacks
Emotion drips, drip by drip
A gallon in my throat
Nobody notices the flood
Inside the quiet one
I swallow it down, swallow it down
PretendingI'm okay
PretendingI'm okay
