You see, I may come off as strong, But the problem with being "the strong one", The one who always offers a hand to everyone, Is that, t have no one to hold mine. They think I don't need anyone, They think I have no problems, no worries, BUT, even I fall asleep crying, And say nothing's wrong, Because nobody knows, That I really am lying, That no one is so strong......

"SO STRONG..."
You see, I may come off as strong, But the problem with being "the strong one", The one who always offers a hand to everyone, Is that, t have no one to hold mine. They think I don't need anyone, They think I have no problems, no worries, BUT, even I fall asleep crying, And say nothing's wrong, Because nobody knows, That I really am lying, That no one is so strong......
The daily struggle of thousands like me, who have a tough exterior, and hard walls around themselves to protect the fragile heart from breaking again, Also to not to show our emotions and stress, So our friends and family are not burdened....
