I'm always pushing myself
Always upset
Got only one friend
Booze is my only friend
Thought if I go somewhere else
Then I could get to be one of "them"
Guess I should think again
"How's it going?
Are you okay?"
My mom says over the waves
"Uh-huh
Such a lovely day as always
In every way"
"Everything is going so fine"
There's no truth in that line
I told you a lie
"Everything is going so fine"
There's no truth in that line
I'm sorry, mom, I just lied
I told you a lie

遠く離れた家族への気遣いから、本当の自分を隠して強がってしまう心理が痛いほど伝わります。寂しさや苦しさを一人で抱え込み、大丈夫だと偽る言葉の重みに、読む側の胸が熱くなりました。正直になれない自分を責める気持ちが、切ない後悔と共に広がっていきます。愛情ゆえの嘘が、かえって孤独を深めていく様子が悲しかったです。
