Teary Eyed

As the tears begin to fall, I try to keep standing tall, And pretend that I'm okay, But my face gives me away. My tears I no longer hold After what I've been told, This crying feels good to me; It helps set my pain free. I'm a broken man on the inside, Getting myself together I've tried. The pieces slip through my fingers As my pain sits there and lingers. My hurting inside I can't tame For this pain you're to blame The pain I try to hide But I can't do it teary-eyed.
