I try to hide
I try to deny
All the pain I feel inside


I feel it coming
Coming so slowly

It will catch me

I am drowning

In all of the lies
Cause underneath the smile
I am empty inside

I'm ready to burst
I'm slowly going crazy
You don't understand what's inside


I don't understand
Why it comes back to me every time

Why am I the one
Who has to suffer
Who has to hurt

Who has to cry myself to sleep at night

I feel it coming

But it's already caught me

I am drowning

In all of the lies
Cause underneath the smile
I am empty inside

I'm ready to burst
I'm slowly going crazy
You don't understand what's inside


I knew from the very start
This will break my heart

The reason I am like this
Is because of you
But now I don't want to stay away

This is not safe for me to say

I am drowning

In all of the lies
Cause underneath the smile
I am empty inside

I'm ready to burst
I'm slowly going crazy
You don't understand what's inside
