I can get up early, I can be on time
I can read the paper, and seem completely fine
I'll be smiling when you see me, yea I'll do the best I can
Just don't ask me how I am
I put on my raincoat so I can't feel the rain
I cut my heart off of my sleeve, so I can't feel the pain
You can ask about my day, and I'll tell you about my plans
Just don't ask me how I am
Cause I'm lonely, and I'm weary, and I'm all torn up inside
There are moments, I feel hopeless, like I'm just biding my time
And there's nothing, I could tell you, to help you understand
So just don't ask me how I am
I'm almost sleeping through the night, and my routine hasn't changed
Company can come around, and I can entertain
We can go out on the town, I'll drink and laugh and dance
Just don't ask me how I am
We can talk about the weather, you an ask about my job
But don't ask me for directions, I'm completely lost
Cause I'm lonely, and I'm weary, and I'm all torn up inside
There are moments, I feel hopeless, like I'm just biding my time
And there's nothing I could tell you, to help you understand
So just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am.
