[Verse]
I walk these streets with my hood pulled tight,
Nobody sees the storm in my eyes.
Laugh with the crowd, but I fade away,
Holdin’ back the words I’ll never say.
I smile on cue, play the part they know,
But inside I’m sinkin’ under the show.
So when the skies open up, I step outside,
Where the world won’t notice the tears I hide.
[Chorus]
I’m cryin’ in the rain, where no one can tell,
Hidin’ all the hurt I know too well.
Let the cold drops fall, wash across my face,
No one sees my heart breakin’ in this place.
You might think I’m just walkin’ alone,
But I’m drownin’ in things I don’t let show.
Yeah, I’m cryin’ in the rain…
So no one knows.
[Verse]
They say I’m strong, they say I’m fine,
But they don’t hear the war in my mind.
I carry jokes like a fragile shield,
Keepin’ the cracks so well concealed.
I tell myself it’s easier this way,
If no one sees, they won’t walk away.
So when the storm rolls in, I slip outside,
Where the sky and I can share the night.
[Chorus]
I’m cryin’ in the rain, where no one can tell,
Hidin’ all the hurt I know too well.
Let the cold drops fall, wash across my face,
No one sees my heart breakin’ in this place.
You might think I’m just walkin’ alone,
But I’m drownin’ in things I don’t let show.
Yeah, I’m cryin’ in the rain…
So no one knows.
[Bridge – Soft, Whispered]
And maybe someday I’ll let it show,
Maybe someday I’ll let someone know.
But for now, the rain’s my only friend,
It covers the tears I can’t defend.
[Chorus – Emotional, Rising, Then Soft]
I’m cryin’ in the rain, where no one can tell,
Hidin’ all the hurt I know too well.
Let the cold drops fall, wash across my face,
No one sees my heart breakin’ in this place.
You might think I’m just walkin’ alone,
But I’m drownin’ in things I don’t let show.
Yeah, I’m cryin’ in the rain…
So no one knows.
[Outro – Gentle Fade]
Yeah, I’m cryin’ in the rain…
And no one knows.
