Tears

Tears

As my tears fall
you scream and yell 
without a care at all

You never understood me
You never saw what I see

A pool of tears 
have always 'bin'
on the pages of my book
if you would jus, take one look...
you would see.

But you don't care 
You jus scream and yell and shout
as I shed my teardrops out.

Soaked and wet
my book's no good
but you don't care
you jus yell, as you always would.

And as I watch my teardrops fall
I could jus wish, to end it all.
