Leonard Lee - I'm Okay

'don't worry, i'm okay'
thats what i always say...
even if i'm not...
even when my emotions are boiling hot...
even when i'm sad...
even when things go bad...

funny how i could bluff my way around...
just a fake smile and a change of sound...

why am i doing this i don' t know...
emotions i don't really show...
it's eating me slow and surely...
but this is how i am truly...

freak? yes i think so...
pretender? i don; t really know...
all i know is that i'm okay
i'll always be just okay...

Leonard Lee
