Three words
I would never guess would change so much
They hurt
I'm smiling but its taking all I've got
It's not your fault
But I gotta find a way to be polite
I'm overboard
And I want to run and hide
Everybody keeps on saying

How are you?
How are you?
How are you?
How are you?
I say
I'm ok, I'm alright
Yeah I'm all good
'Cause I got up
I showed my face
I guess I'm fine
But I'm not the same
Forever a constant reminder

How are you?
Small talk
Feels harder than it ever was
Alone in a crowded room
And nobody knows it
I'm sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable
By being honest guess I gotta learn the rules
Is it better to lie?
Is it better to smile?
Because my mind goes blank when they say

How are you?
How are you?
How are you?
How are you?
I say
I'm ok, I'm alright
Yeah I'm all good
'Cause I got up
I showed my face
I guess I'm fine
But I'm not the same
Forever a constant reminder
How are you?
Honestly I just don't know
Everything's a mess and I'd rather be alone right now
I just want to go back home
And be on my own, be on my own

How are you?
How are you?
How are you?
How are you?
I say
I'm ok, I'm alright
Yeah I'm all good
'Cause I got up
I showed my face
I guess I'm fine
But I'm not the same
Forever a constant reminder
How are you?
