[Chorus]
Why are you feeling this way
I wish that I could take away your pain
Why are you feeling this way
I told you everything will be okay
[Verse 1]
Only time I see you smiles for the picture that you pose in
Smiley face emojis in the caption when you post it
Hoping that your family and your friends will never notice
But I notice you've been putting on this act come on we both know it
Why do conversations have to turn so vicious
Why does getting close to you is when you feel most distant
How come when I try and talk you say I just don't listen
But when I stop now you're mad that I don't have an opinion
Come on
I'm at a cross-roads
I'm trying to see it from both ways like when you cross roads
You say you lost hope fell inside that hole and so I threw you a rope
You ain't grab it so I took it and I left you alone
I can't help but feeling mad when you just push me away
I can't help but feeling mad when you can't look me in the face
And you just disregard the things that I was trying to tell you
Hell you'll never know what that just took me to say
I gave you every chance to try and make a change
But no matter what I do it's just gonna stay the same
Maybe I'm the problem, should we take a break ?
I still don't know what happened
That's why I keep on asking
[Chorus]
Why are you feeling this way
I wish that I could take away your pain
Why are you feeling this way
I told you everything will be okay
[Verse 2]
Of course I post pictures of me smiling and laughing
Happy face caption
Hoping if I portray the life that I wanted
Maybe one day I'll wake up and it actually happens
But for now I guess it's back to the acting
You're the only person I can ever be myself around
I don't need you trying to be my savior that ain't helping now
If I'm walking on the edge please don't try and help me down
Just stay close until I find myself a healthy ground
I don't need solutions I need comfort
Pointing out the problems trying to solve it makes the cuts hurt
Sometimes life sucks and sometimes love hurts
And telling me that everything's okay just makes it much worse
It should be okay to not be okay
Cause dealing with these feelings really taught me some things
And I know you think it's not gonna change
But I'd rather you walk with me than be walking away
[Chorus]
Why are you feeling this way
I wish that I could take away your pain
Why are you feeling this way
I told you everything will be okay
