Boys Don'T Cry

Go away!
I can manage on my own
Picking up slacks that my confusion littered
I have a heart of diamond

Why are you still here!?
Do you want to get hurt... like me?
With blood dripping in the trails
Walking on shattered glass, kneeling on salt

Leave me alone!
In this heavy rain with forests as my only cover
I'm a warrior immune to damages
But blemished with hundred scars

Boys don't cry,
But I'm a man with only this as my outlet
So run away from here
Grab me some tissues and don't ever leave... please...
