How long has it been now
Since I last cried
Tears always held back
Tearing me up inside
I regret listening to everyone
Who said crying was weak
Turn off those waterworks
It was hard to speak
About the pain in myself
Then they turned on me
I didn’t cry when I should have
If only they could see
Guess I can live to regret it
I’m sorry I never cried
When Auntie Jill got cancer
Or when Dear Granddad died
I regret it and I’m sorry for it
I used to cry a long time ago
But that was when I was younger
Before I forced my tears to go
As if I needed them anyway
But I do care deep inside
Because I think I was better off
Before I learned how not to cry
