I'm not gonna lie At times when I'm alone I cry I shed a tear  Or 2 And I feel like no 1 Understands what I'm going through  But I have to keep my head up And when I fall I have to get up I was once told  Not everything that shines Is gold And just because you have someone In your life doesn't mean they will Always be there to hold And just because I cry  Doesn't mean I'm weak And just because im silent Doesn't mean the world can't  Hear me speak And action are louder  Then words  But what good are words If they're never heard  And how can we prepare for The future  Without studying the past And how can I think about my next step If I haven't finished my last And how can someone be so close But seem so far Surrounded by people And still feel alone And the place where I lay my head  Not feel like home And how do they want me to lead  If I have yet learn to follow It's hard to swallow  But maybe I'm doing everything wrong All along And they say with each ending Comes a new beginning  But it seems like with each beginning There is always an ending How could something so dear to me Frighten me Maybe the same way  Dark things Enlighten me You know teach me  All these thoughts go bye In a blink of an eye So yeah I'm not gonna lie  I cry  From time to time

I cry
I'm not gonna lie At times when I'm alone I cry I shed a tear  Or 2 And I feel like no 1 Understands what I'm going through  But I have to keep my head up And when I fall I have to get up I was once told  Not everything that shines Is gold And just because you have someone In your life doesn't mean they will Always be there to hold And just because I cry  Doesn't mean I'm weak And just because im silent Doesn't mean the world can't  Hear me speak And action are louder  Then words  But what good are words If they're never heard  And how can we prepare for The future  Without studying the past And how can I think about my next step If I haven't finished my last And how can someone be so close But seem so far Surrounded by people And still feel alone And the place where I lay my head  Not feel like home And how do they want me to lead  If I have yet learn to follow It's hard to swallow  But maybe I'm doing everything wrong All along And they say with each ending Comes a new beginning  But it seems like with each beginning There is always an ending How could something so dear to me Frighten me Maybe the same way  Dark things Enlighten me You know teach me  All these thoughts go bye In a blink of an eye So yeah I'm not gonna lie  I cry  From time to time
