…hold it… …hold it together… …don’t let it show… Hold it in don’t let it break Say I’m good every time they ask Stay in line don’t lose the pace One more step I’ll be okay Hold it in don’t let it crack Keep it straight don’t let it lag Look composed keep up the act One more breath just like that Wake up, same weight Chest tight, same space Say less, keep face Don’t slip, keep pace Little signs I ignore Like I’ve seen it before Like if I let it through It’ll be something more Hands shake, still fine Just tired, not mine Push it back, don’t think Cross it out, don’t link No one sees but it’s loud No one hears but it’s now If it breaks too far So I keep it down Hold it in don’t let it break Say I’m good every time they ask Stay in line don’t lose the pace One more step I’ll be okay Bills stack, time thin Still smile, still in Say “yeah, I’m alright” Even when it spins They don’t see the cost Just the part I play If I drop the mask Do they look away? Keep calm, don’t drift Don’t show what shifts Be the one that lifts Even when it slips Hold it in don’t let it break Say I’m good every time they ask Stay in line don’t lose the pace One more step I’ll be okay Hold it in don’t let it fall Stand up straight through it all Say I’m fine say it all Even if I stall I’m fine… I’m fine… I’m fine… …yeah… I don’t know how long I can fake What I say vs what I take If I stop, does it all cave in Or do I finally break the frame I’m in Hold it in but I feel it shake Say I’m good but it don’t stay Still move even with that weight Still here I didn’t break …still holding… …still moving…
