lyrics: crying on the inside
I’m strong, I’m not sad
I’m not afraid, I’m so glad
that everything is how I like
no, I’m not mad, everything is fine
so don’t ask me what I’m trying to hide
no, I’m not crying on the inside
so don’t ask me what I’m trying to prove
oh no, I’m not ashamed of you
be strong, don’t look so sad
don’t be scared, just look glad
that everything looks how people like
no, don’t be mad, make everything seem fine
so don’t ask me what I’m trying to hide
no, I’m not crying on the inside
so don’t ask me what I’m trying to disprove
oh no, I’m not ashamed of you
I’ve been ashamed of fear
but don’t let anyone know
I’ve been ashamed to feel
but don’t let anything show
I’ve been ashamed of me
but don’t take it personally
that I’ve been ashamed of pride
and that’s no lie
But be quiet, don’t make a scene
Be smart and keep it to yourself be cause
people may blame you if you say what they’re afraid to
but what if they do? What if they blame you?
Can you face their rage
Can you bless their shame
Can you love their hate
Can you brave the storm that they’re afraid to explore
so don’t ask me what I’m trying to hide
no, I’m not crying on the inside
so don’t ask me who I’m trying to fool
oh no, I’m not ashamed of what I came here to do
Can you face my rage
Can you bless my shame
Can you love my hate
Can you brave the storm I’ve been afraid to explore
