I Won'T Cry

Never letting it be seen So I am in pain I am hurt and I may never be the same These effects that are not seen behind my thick skin This pain is just weakness leaving from within I won't cry - I resist wet goodbyes And do not allow you to ask why In my life I am the only one who will ever know When a tear drop comes to my eye I wait in silence for the solace of solitude But it never comes... My mind is tripping with so much anxiety deep inside And I fall on booze in the local pub Just to stand back and never love Again... Retreating with no thought of the past Twisting between now and then Like the Cold beneath the Heat With sweet kisses for her Planted on bare skin But never sinking in... The same mistake I gave in.
