I'm fine

Verse 1

Yeah I’m good, yeah I’m straight
That’s the line I’ve learned to say
Smile locked in, shoulders square
Like nothing’s breaking anywhere

Clock in, grind, pay the dues
Keep my head down, tie my boots
If I look tired, I blame the night
If I look distant, I say I’m fine

Pre-Chorus

Piece by piece I’m coming apart
But I don’t let it show
Got duct tape wrapped around my heart
Nobody needs to know

Chorus

I’m fine
At least that’s what I tell ‘em every time
I’m fine
Even when I’m barely holding the line
Falling apart but I don’t let it show
Learned a long time ago

No one cares if you’re breaking inside
No one checks when a strong man cries
So I swallow it down, every single time
And say I’m fine

Verse 2

They say “man up,” “you’ll be alright”
“Shake it off,” “you’ll win that fight”
So I nod my head and play my part
While something’s rotting in my heart

Can’t talk about it, what’s the use?
Weakness just becomes an excuse
If I say I’m drowning, I’ll sink alone
So I build these walls like stone on stone

Pre-Chorus

Day by day I lose more ground
But I don’t make a sound
Strong men don’t get sympathy
They just don’t fall down

Chorus

I’m fine
At least that’s what I tell ‘em every time
I’m fine
Even when I’m losing my mind
Falling apart but I don’t let it show
That’s just the way it goes

No one cares if you’re breaking inside
No one checks when a strong man cries
So I swallow it down, every single time
And say I’m fine

Bridge

When the house gets quiet
And the lights go low
That’s when the truth
Starts to show

Hands on my face
Head in my palms
Trying to convince myself
I’m still strong

Breakdown

I’m not fine
But I don’t know how to say that line
I’m not fine
But no one’s listening anyway, right?

Final Chorus

I’m fine
That’s what I’ve trained myself to say
I’m fine
Till something inside me breaks
Falling apart piece by piece
While the world just sleeps

No one cares if you’re sad or alone
No one checks on the ones who don’t moan
So I swallow it down, every single time
And say I’m fine

Outro

Yeah… I’m fine.
Don’t worry about me.
