I cry in the rain

I cry in the rain

So the people around me don't see my pain

Tears are a sign of weakness

People who see your tears will try to hurt you

My strength is something no one can compete with

So if I cry in the rain no one will know

Therefore weakness is something I do not show

I know you hurt me, You know you hurt me

Why should I let my tears be shown and all of my deepest fears be known

I can't do it

Be completely exposed for all the world to see

How badly the game of love defeated you and me

So I cry in the rain so no one can see my pain
