Strong For You

Let the tears flow

I won't pity you I'll only care

This isn't "who" you are just a part of you

Start counting from 1 to 10

Take a deep breath in and out

Keeping it in won't stop the hurt

Do as you wish and just cry

Do as you want and let it all go

Don't be strong for the world

Only be strong for yourself.
