Till It's Dawn
Weeping endures for the night,
Joy comes in the morning.
So I'll cry my balls out through the night, awaiting the happiness dawn brings.
I'll cry till there are no fluid left to spill.
I will cry, they won't know I did.
Darkness will cover it all.
I will do it softly, they won't hear me sniff, they won't see me drip the drops.
Darkness will cover it all.
No, I will dance through the night, I will dance till dawn comes.
I will stamp my feet, I will shake myself vigorously.
They'll say "She's happy, she's merrying."
I'll smile having fooled them all.
I will dance as I cry,
For at dawn Joy comes.
