I want to cry, I need to cry But tears, they just won't fall. My body is racked with despair My tear ducts blind to it all.
I feel as though that small release Of tears falling as rain Would help to wash away my fears My loneliness and pain.
I feel so hollow, like a shell A husk of deserved life It's as though there's no-one else Who's felt this angst and strife.
Although I wish for tears to come And they refuse to leak I'll put on a mask of happiness To hide the pain I seek.
