that's okay.

My dreams are none of your concern
And that's okay
I tell myself every single day it seems
That deep down inside I know
It really doesn't bother me
And how I wish that it was true
How could I convey
In the most eloquent of ways
All the things that tear me
Limb from limb and my skeletons
That lie within
I'm told that I'm too emotional
When I'm devotional to my friends
People set all of their expectations
Way too low and I still can't reach them
But I'll keep going and doubt it
I don't wanna cause trouble I'll be
Quiet about it and just move along
I'll try to keep me calm

My dreams are none of your concern
My dreams are none of your concern
And that's okay
And that's okay
That's okay
That's okay
Why do I have so much faith
Why can't you just tell me straight
I'm over it I'm over it I'm tired of
Being what I'm not
But it's okay

I'm sorry that I'm not what you expected
I promise I'll be what you want
But you won't even care if I
Do my best pretend to try
I'm tired of saving face
I always seem to take the blame
When your lips start to speak my name
I'm finally getting rid
Of the scared and helpless kid
That I've kept in my mind for so long

My dreams are none of your concern
My dreams are none of your concern
But that's okay
But that's okay
That's okay
That's okay
Tell myself that I'm fine
Tell myself that I'm
Tell myself that I'm fine
Tell myself
I'm cognitive I'm dissonant
I'm positive I'm missing it
I find myself still wishing that
This wasn't true but it still is
