Tears

In the darkness of the night

His eyes glow with a tinge of red

They suck everything that he’s got

Mind, Body, soul

Never to be whole

You will not see his tears

Cause he would rather die,

Than to let you see him cry

They say men don’t cry

or so he was told by all

Despite the pain that he goes through

Only he will let him

see the tears in his eyes

Cause he would rather die,

Than to let you see him cry

Men he grew up with

Taught him how to be a man

Through his father

He learned the price

of pain and sacrifice

and despite everything

one thing

His father did not do was cry

Cause he would rather die,

than to let you see him cry

But when the pain is too great to bear

The tears are waiting to burst and tear

Still you will see no tears

Cause he would rather die,

Than to let you see him cry
