歌詞

Did I manage to smile today?

I ask the mirror, in a quiet way

The real feelings I keep inside

Deep in my pocket, where they hide—

All crumpled up, and tucked away

The things I didn't dare to say

I’ve gotten better at the "I’m okay,"

But that’s exactly why the lonely stay

It hurts a bit, to act so strong

When something here feels a little wrong

A quiet voice, deep in my chest

Asking if this is truly for the best

There’s no "right answer" I need to find

Just need to be a little more kind—

To the person I am, right here, right now

To hold myself, and allow the vow

Trying so hard has become my way

I’ve forgotten how to rest, day after day

Living for others, pleasing the crowd

But I’m tired now, beneath the shroud

If I can move forward, even while I’m weak

That’s all I need, the peace I seek

I want to believe that’s enough to hold

Before the world makes me feel too cold

A quiet voice, in the corner of night

Asking if I’m okay, if the future’s bright

Can I love who I am, in spite of the flaws?

Without following someone else’s laws?

Even when things don't go as planned

There’s something here that’s worth a hand

I can’t find the words for why I cry

But I feel the pulse, I feel the lie

My heart is living, beating true

Even when the skies aren't bright and blue

A quiet voice, again and again

Whispering softly to ease the pain

I don’t need the answers, big and grand

Just a small "It's okay," to help me stand

Taking the next step, one by one

Under the moon, under the sun

The me of today, just as I am

I’ll give a nod, I’ll give a damn

If I can forgive myself tonight

Then everything’s gonna be alright
