I'm only as strong as the next tear to fall
Or the fear I haven't mastered just yet
I'm crumbling in the hands of forgiveness
Because there's so much I can't forget
The damage is still running its course
Destroying the sanity left inside
I try to be the shoulder for others
Where do I go when I need to cry?
I don't want them to see me break down
I'm supposed to be the smiling one
But when everything goes so wrong
I've left myself nowhere to run.
So I hold it inside, and shed not a tear
Pretend that nothing is happening
I pack my emotions into a locked box
Where they can never get the best of me
I've blocked out the world, good and bad
Lost out on the joys to run from the pain
No one gets into this vault, my heart
Where the girl who needs love remains
Get me out of here. Say it's all alright.
Let me cry wrapped in your comforting arms
Normally I'd be the heroine in life
But I need a hero to save me from harm.
