i can lay here and smile
i can laugh in a crowd
i can pretend like everything never happened at all
and i do....
i dont know what couldve been worse
a clean break, an eternal bond
yet all i can do is hang here
my fingers grip
sliding slowly
still smiling
im ok im ok im ok im ok
ill never let you know how it hurts me
the actress in me comes forth
dressed in her full regalia
ready to please, pretend
give illusions
that this girl is really alright
im fine im fine im fine
tokens of our past still litter my room
pictures, clothes, my unsent letters
now i feel a fool
i was so lost in that illusion
so colorfully displayed on my plate for so long
and i told everyone about it
i bragged
i have love, isnt that wonderful?
but it was all a joke
no love
no dream
turns you around and does that to you
no love rips your lungs out and forces you to breathe the water
acclimate to a climate youve neer seen
you left me floating
nothing,....
no splash of light to illuminate me under the water
and all i want to do is breathe
all i want to do is breathe
but i cant do it alone....
(i love you)
