I Don’t Cry

I swear I tried to show my heart to you, child

But I'm easily misunderstood

Every now and then, I try to be better

It doesn't work out the way it should

I don't believe in happiness

'Cause happiness will leave you dry

And I don't cry

I don't cry

I built these walls to keep it all inside

And I don't cry

The one time I ever let my guard down

I didn't know that it could hurt so much

How could I feel so disappointed

When I know we're all just made of dust

I don't believe in happiness

I really don't have the time

'Cause I don't cry

No, I don't cry

I built these walls to keep it all inside

And I don't cry

I don't cry

If you ask me, I'm just fine

I don't cry

Sometimes, late at night when no one sees

I cry myself to sleep

I don't cry

I don't cry

I built these walls to keep it all inside

I don't cry

No, I don't cry

If you ask me, I'm just fine

I built these walls to keep it all inside

Honey, it's hard to live this lie

I don't cry
