Society tries to tell us, that crying is for the weak
You need to be strong, and people who are viewed as strong don’t cry
The truth is that crying is ok even when your hurting
If we never showed our emotions would we try to lock them up inside
Tears fill my eyes as they roll off my cheeks and soak my pillow
Sometimes the weight of the day takes a toll on my emotional well being
It’s hard to imagine that you cried too Jesus, as a sign of deeply hurting
I don’t want to hide behind my mask any longer, take it off and wipe my eyes
When I got married first I didn’t expect it to end in divorce and heartbreak
I thought it all was over, that there was nothing left for me to experience
A life after heartbreak, a life of new beginnings I could never imagine
I am on my way to healing, but it’s hard because I feel so alone
I don’t know what you’re going to show me yet
But you told me it was going to cost me all I had
I tried to hold my tears back as I left my family
Now that I am here in Washington, I have done more crying
Why is it so hard to put my hope in you
Why is it so hard to put my trust in you
Why is it so hard to put my needs in your hands
Why is it so hard to give you the control of everything
My eyes are burning, because of my tears
I get upset because I feel so helpless
I get anxious because the day didn’t bring answers I thought I needed
I am saddened by the news of this world, and it brings my eyes to tears
