If i showed you my teardrops.
Would you collect them like rain
Store them in a jar
That are labelled with "Pain"
Would you follow their tracks
From my eyes down my cheeks
As they write all my stories
That i'm scared to speak
Would you stop them with kisses
Bring their flow to a halt
As you teach me that pain
Isn't always my fault
Would you hold my face gently
As you dry both my eyes
And whisper the words
"You're to precious to cry".
If i showed you my teardrops
Would you show me your own
And learn though we're  lonely,
We're never alone.
Don't be afraid to cry, to let away your pain
to let go of hurt that is driving you insane,
Embrace these mini waterfalls, sliding down your cheek
it won't make you seem fallible, it won't make you weak
Taste the salt that linger, and slowly shut your eyes
know that these tears will simply pass you by.
This pain will wear away, and your tears will soon dry.
You've practiced all your life, to accept mistakes as they come
so don't let this mistake cause you to become numb.
Open up your eyes, and let those tears fall -
Recognize your pain, don't put up this brick wall.
So don't be afraid to cry, just let away your pain...
Let go of the hurt that's driving you insane.
Who are you to judge the life i live?
I know i'm not perfect
and i don't live to be
but, before you start pointing fingers
make sure your hands are clean.
