They tell me “don’t cry”,
but how can they expect me to just be dry.

They tell me “it’s not that big of a deal”,
but those words won’t help me heal.

They tell me “it’s not worth your tears”,
then their gone and im still just here.

After all their “advice” I’m still hurting inside,
So from them, my pain, I’ll just learn to hide.
