Within me, I have held my tears
Pretending a fake smile, for years.
But, under the starlight sky
In peace, tonight I can cry.

Carrying, the weight of the world on my shoulder
Even in pain, I didn't lose my composure
But tonight, tears flow from my eye
In peace, tonight I can cry.

I wipe everyone's tears
Within me, I carry their fears.
But, none witnesses my helplessness, nothing they hear
For I cry alone when none is near.

I unleash the sorrow, that I had caged
Sky cries with me, it begins to rain.
The raindrops, hide my tears of pain
But scars of sadness still remain, the same.

Shedding tears alone, I realize
People depend on me, I'm their pride.
For their smiles, I can't afford to cry
So in tonight's darkness, my tears I hide.

The dawn breaks, the sun begins to shine
I wear the crown of thorns, that's mine.
Wiping tears, for my loved ones, I rise
For my tears, aren't meant for others' eyes.
