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.
