Don'T Cry

Don’t cry Not because it doesn’t hurt I know it violently does Don’t cry Not that your heart is of steel Just don’t bow to defeat Do not shed a tear; Not because you are a man But you’ve got to be strong Don’t cry I know life plays favourites But life isn’t for the weak Don’t cry Not that you lack tears But don’t let them see you drown Stop crying When you tremble in fear That’s when the lion in you roars Don’t cry When your faith is shaken In the messages of pain from the past Don’t cry Or maybe you should Only if you do behind doors.
