Chains are only strong for so long

Tell me I’m not worth it, I’ll just nod my head
Because honestly you’re the one better off dead

Go ahead tell me I don’t have a pretty face
Because I know one day I’ll find my place

I’m stronger than you think,
I’ll tell you once more I’ll never break
I’m not going to be the weakest link

Tell me that you don’t care
Your never going to see my despair

Tell me that my best friend died
I know I’m going to cry

But you’ll never ever see my break
All my smiles, my blank face
They will always be just fake

But tell me that he doesn’t care
I’ll start to realize its all a nightmare

I’m not as strong as you thought I was
I’ve never always perfectly fine
So now I think it’s time I’m defined

I stayed strong for so so long
But all along the emotions were never gone
I just put up a mask so no would know

But this time I can’t hide it
This time I’m not hiding away
Today is finally the day

The strongest link finally started to break
My knees they’ve started to shake
The air in my lungs is getting caught up
And I don’t think these tears are going to let up

The strongest link isn’t always that strong
Sometimes it just takes a little while
For the strongest link to realize their denial

I’m not okay but I swear to this day
I’d put up a smile
So you’d be okay for a while
