Ever since I remember,
I've held it in, held it all.
Somehow I felt comfortable,
behind my wall, behind it all.

This is why I don't cry,
this is why I don't cry.
Tears, they only compromise,
there's no need to visualize.

This is why I don't cry,
this is why I don't cry.
Tears, they only minimize,
everything I keep inside.

I bet that you think I'm lonely.
You may be right. I just might.
And if you want me to break down,
it'd be a sight, but not tonight.

This is why I don't cry,
this is why I don't cry.
Tears, they only compromise,
there's no need to visualize.

This is why I don't cry,
this is why I don't cry.
Tears, they only minimize,
everything I keep inside.

This is why I don't cry,
this is why I don't cry.
Tears, they only compromise,
there's no need to visualize.

This is why I don't cry,
this is why I don't cry.
Tears, they only minimize,
everything I keep inside.
