Better Off

Better Off

Where does all this emotion come from
That's bottled up inside?
How can I get it to go away,
Stop trying to hide?

What do I do?
I'd rather not cry.
"Crying doesn't show weakness."
Is all just a lie.

So tie me up,
And leave me be.
I can take care of my own problems.
I can take care of me.

Leave me.
Go away.
I'll act like I'm fine.
I have nothing left to say.

Just leave me.
Go away.
I'll act like I'm fine.
It's better off this way.
