I feel like I'm suffocating
And I don't know why
Or maybe I do
But I would rather lie

Say that I'm happy,
Say that I'm fine
When things do get to me,
I already know my lines.

How are you?
I'm great.
Are you lying to me?
No.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Are you sure?
Yep, I'm happy ☺

No one thinks differently,
Because why would they?
I'm pretty convincing,
They don't know I lie.
