Lied About Being Fine
Verse 1 (Her)
Smile on my face, like the world won’t see,
The glass I’m clutchin’ ain’t half empty.
Laughin’ at jokes we don’t even tell,
Hiding the storm where no one can dwell.
Verse 1 (Him)
I shake your hand, nod at old friends,
Pretend the cracks don’t reach the end.
Tie my tie a little tighter, hold my jaw,
Keep the quiet from spilling out the door.
Pre-Chorus (Both, overlapping)
We act like it’s easy, act like it’s fine,
But we’re bleed-through cracks in a straight line.
Chorus (Both)
We lied about being fine,
Smiles like armor, hearts on the line.
Everyone thinks we’ve got it all together,
But hell, we’re just holdin’ on for weather.
Yeah, the pictures don’t tell the truth,
The empty rooms echo me and you.
We lied about being fine,
But baby, I still want you—mine.
Verse 2 (Him)
I drink my coffee black, no sugar, no cheer,
Talk about work like I don’t feel fear.
The silence at night hits louder than sound,
Like the life we built’s already breaking down.
Verse 2 (Her)
I post a selfie with my best friend,
Caption a line like the pain will bend.
They see the sparkle, they don’t see the scrape,
The late-night cries, the choices we hate.
Pre-Chorus (Both)
We hold our ground, we fake our grace,
But shadows follow every face.
Chorus (Both, intense)
We lied about being fine,
Smiles like armor, hearts on the line.
Everyone thinks we’ve got it all together,
But hell, we’re just holdin’ on for weather.
Yeah, the pictures don’t tell the truth,
The empty rooms echo me and you.
We lied about being fine,
But baby, I still want you—mine.
Bridge (Her, soft)
I see you staring, fighting back the tears,
I feel it too, after all these years.
Bridge (Him, soft)
Maybe we’re broken, maybe we’re scarred,
But I can’t walk away, can’t disregard.
Bridge (Both, building)
We’re fire and gasoline, sparks in the night,
Holding on ‘cause we can’t get it right.
Chorus (Both, raw & soaring)
We lied about being fine,
Smiles like armor, hearts on the line.
Everyone thinks we’ve got it all together,
But hell, we’re just holdin’ on for weather.
Yeah, the pictures don’t tell the truth,
The empty rooms echo me and you.
We lied about being fine,
But baby, I still want you—mine.
Outro (Both, quiet, trembling)
So we keep pretending, the world won’t see,
The mess we live in, the truth between you and me.
