I walk through days
No words of praise
A compliment lands
It stays for years, always
I hold it close, a fleeting spark
In a world that tells me to hide my heart
They say be tough, don't show the strain
But I'm crumbling, quiet under all this pain
I try to speak, but the words won't come
They told me silence, so I stay numb
Boys don't cry, no, boys don't cry
Swallow the hurt and keep it locked inside
Boys don't cry, though I'm breaking apart
Hiding the tears in the dark of my heart
The weight's too much, but I can't break
They call me weak if I show the ache
My mind's a storm, it's hard to breathe
But I fear the shame if I let them see
Lonely nights, I don't confess
The quiet eats me, I'm a silent mess
I love so deep, but it's never returned
I hurt in shadows where no one learns
Boys don't cry, no, boys don't cry
Swallow the hurt and keep it locked inside
Boys don't cry, though I'm breaking apart
Hiding the tears in the dark of my heart
Man up, they say, don't ask if I'm okay
Bury the pain, let it fade away
But I'm screaming inside, can't you hear the sound
I'm drowning in silence, but I won't be found
Boys don't cry, no, boys don't cry
Swallow the hurt and keep it locked inside
Boys don't cry, though I'm breaking apart
Hiding the tears in the dark of my heart
I stand alone with a smile I fake
Carrying dreams that my heart can't take
Boys don't cry, but I'm losing my way
Maybe one day I'll be free to say
Thanks for watching
