I cry on the inside
Just like you take a can of pop and you shake it all about
and it builds up
The pressures so extreme once released it will just explode
That's the way I feel inside with my head it feels like TNT
One day it will ignite and I know it will be the end of me
I stutter and I stammer and I see that it is all no use
No one seems to care as I explain of all of the abuse
My heart is so hard it's been transformed into a heart of
stone
I sit here in tears in the dark feeling lost I'm all alone
Chorus
Yes, I cry on the inside so that no one can see all my tears
I cry on the inside so that no one can see all my fears
Yes, I cry on the inside my problems they are magnified
I cry on the inside and I know I want to run and hide
Yes, I cry on the inside so that no one can see all my tears
I cry on the inside it's been tormenting
me for many years
Yes, I cry on the inside and I know that I have really tried
I cry on the inside and I know
that I am petrified
I sit in my room with my hands cradled on my head
My mind in turmoil tries to sleep and I wish that I was dead
No one understands how I think so I guess I am to blame
When I close my eyes at night in my tears I try to hide my
shame
I stare at the wall and try to talk but get no reply
My tears all dried up feeling lost unable now to cry
A recluse as I tremble always shaking I am feeling cold
Scared of my thoughts in my soul now I know I've lost
control
Chorus
Yes, I cry on the inside so that no one can see all my tears
I cry on the inside so that no one can see all my fears
Yes, I cry on the inside my problems they are magnified
I cry on the inside and I know I want to run and hide
Yes, I cry on the inside so that no one can see all my tears
I cry on the inside it's been tormenting
me for many years
Yes, I cry on the inside and I know that I have really tried
I cry on the inside and I know
that I am petrified
