Behind Their Eyes

Do you ever wonder what is behind their eyes
You know those things they will try to disguise
Are they as tough as they try to be
Forsaking tenderness as not meant for me

But when it matters to know the truth
Is all they say Oh Hell and Struth 
For it will be something to see
A tough guy crying as it was meant to be.
