Don't Cry

Recently I've been going through the motions

Without releasing the emotions I'm feeling

Sometimes things get on top of me

And I push them down and compress them

Hoping that they will go away

Somehow all on their own, but they don't

They fade but come back stronger another day

I've felt emotional but don't cry

I've felt down and useless but I try

To get on with my day and hope to get away

From inside my head for a little while

Just to get a breather, feel a little lighter

And hope tomorrow is gonna be brighter

When I'm on my own I feel lonely

But I like being on my own

Recently I've been thinking about life choices

And wondering if I made the right ones

But I know I can't change them

So I move on from these thoughts quickly

Sometimes in my head I hear voices

But they disperse and leave me alone

And resurface again when my environment is quiet

Before I know it another day and week has gone

I've felt emotional but don't cry

I've felt down and useless, but I try

To get on with my day and hope to get away

From inside my head for a little while

Just to get a breather, feel a little lighter

And hope tomorrow is gonna be brighter

When I'm on my own I feel lonely

But I like being on my own

Pushing forward to what's happening now

Emotions are high, like they were four months ago

Didn't cry then and still haven't cried now

The tears have been at the tip of my eyes

Each drop waiting to fall

But I compress them and push them back inside

I don't know why but my emotions

Is something I hide

Don't let them out and don't let anyone within

It's been like this since my life began

I've felt emotional but don't cry

I've felt down and useless but I try

To get on with my day and hope to get away

From inside my head for a little while

Just to get a breather, feel a little lighter

And hope tomorrow is gonna be brighter

When I'm on my own I feel lonely

But I like being on my own
