I cannot cry

In Old

I cannot cry, cos my eyes are running dry.
I fake a smile to hide the pain, the misery, the hate,
But I can't forget it, no matter how hard I may try.
Like a careless animal, you just ate and ate,
You ate me up and you spat me back out.
The things that mattered were the things you didn't care about.

Chorus
I want to know the truth behind the hurtful lies.
I went through so many things that I didn't understand.
I want to understand you, want to see things through your eyes.
I wish that I'd stopped you, wish that I'd made a stand.
I don't hate you but I could never forgive you.
I just want to forget about you, the things you used to do.

I cannot trust, cos you broke me up inside.
I've lost my place and I can't find my way back to the light.
I'm lost at sea and I am being swallowed by the tide.
I've lost all my feeling, and I've lost all my sight.
I hide my face, I don't know how to show it anymore,
But what I do know is that there is something that I hope for.

Chorus
I want to know the truth behind the hurtful lies e.t.c

I'll find my heart, I'll find my soul, I'll find my way.
I'll forget about all of the things I hated you for.
No longer will I listen, I'll say what I wanna to say.
I won't have to play on the safe side anymore,
I won't let you rule my life, I will be me.
Nothing about what happened is fair, I just want to be free,
Free of you.

It's funny how humans can wrap their mind around things and fit them into their version of reality.
