When Women Cry
When women cry the world shatters in silence
Ice mirrors reflect horrors unspeakable on themselves
Truth hides between the cracks of madness
Behind tears, behind broken glass and promises
Sadness in their eyes knows failures origin
While applying make up a pretty face must smile
Being beautiful takes patience and plenty of work
Betrayal is not a foreign word to them
All men speak it fluently
Women keep their feelings bottled up in pride
Like mini volcanoes about to erupt at any time
Don't turn on the lights
You might not like what you see
The other side of women
Crying out the last drops of blood
From a broken heart in misery
