I'm Fine
<p>Like…</p><p>I swear down,</p><p>For a couple of days now</p><p>I don’t think I’ve seen you laugh</p><p>I can’t remember the picture of your smile</p><p>I ask what’s wrong, you say, “I’m fine”</p><p><br/></p><p>For a couple of weeks now</p><p>I haven’t felt the warmth of your hands</p><p>All I see is coldness in your eyes</p><p>I ask what’s wrong, you say, “I’m fine”</p><p><br/></p><p>For a couple of months now</p><p>All I see is darkness in the night</p><p>I’ve learnt to ignore the beauty in the stars</p><p>Cause the light in my star’s been snuffed out</p><p><br/></p><p>For another year now</p><p>I’ve been trying my best to make you smile</p><p>I’d give the world just to hear you laugh</p><p>To see the light sparkle inside your eyes</p><p><br/></p><p>I’m writing fantasies, where you finally open up to me</p><p>’Cause when I ask, you always say, “I’m fine”</p><p>I’m knocking on the door, but you don’t let me inside</p><p>I’m kicking and punching, but it won’t break down</p><p>I just want to enter and rescue the person inside</p><p>But she’s shouting from the inside, saying, “I’m fine”</p><p><br/></p><p>So all I do is pray while you continue to lie</p><p>Now I get sad when I hear “I’m fine”</p><p>Every time you say it, a part of me dies inside</p><p>Cause all I hear is goodbye</p>
