I have to be strong, keep myself busy
All these fake tasks are making me dizzy
But if that's what it takes, then that's what I'll do
Anything to be strong enough to look at you.
I have an overwhelming shame in my heart
So painful and deep, sometimes it won't start.
The pools in my eyes push over
As they fall, getting closer and closer
And they all get together at the very end, flowing together and they finally mend.
If only my heart was as simple as my tears
I would go through life knowing no fears.
