Verse 1
Pulling up these old walls again
They are my protection
Don’t want to let you in
Don’t want you to see
What a mess I am

Pre-Chorus
‘Cause I like to keep up the front that I’m okay
I’m just not fine and I’m losing my mind

Chorus
I’m breaking, mistaking
Everything I see and hear
You’re taking for granted
Everything we hold dear
And I’m dying inside, but I’m alright
So I tell myself, but that’s a lie
And tonight, I just want to cry
Just need to cry

Verse 2
Hiding from my emotions again
Can’t bear to face them
See pain mixed with sin
Compare now to when
We were just friends

Pre-Chorus
‘Cause I like to keep up the front that I’m okay
I’m just not fine and I’m losing my mind

Chorus
I’m breaking, mistaking
Everything I see and hear
You’re taking for granted
Everything we hold dear
And I’m dying inside, but I’m alright
So I tell myself, but that’s a lie
And tonight, I just want to cry
Just need to cry

Bridge
And I’m holding onto nothing
To nothing now
I’m reaching out
But I fall, I fall
And hit the ground

Pre-Chorus
‘Cause I like to keep up the front that I’m okay
I’m just not fine and I’m losing my mind

Chorus
I’m breaking, mistaking
Everything I see and hear
You’re taking for granted
Everything we hold dear
And I’m dying inside, but I’m alright
So I tell myself, but that’s a lie
And tonight, I just want to cry
Just need to cry
