Guys Cry Too
The poor teenage girl sits in her room to cry
Remembering all the mean things said today
"Lose some weight! Wear a mask! Just drop dead and die!"
On her bed, knees hunched, tears fall
Trying to find a quiet place
Trying to end it all
Little does she know
Her friends are all around, so is society
To help her let the pain go
The poor teenage boy sits in his room to cry
Remembering all the mean things said today
"Lose some weight! Wear a mask! Just drop dead and die!"
On his bed, knees hunched, tears fall
Trying to find a quiet place
Trying to end it all
Little do we know
He is all alone
"Be a man they say"
He cannot let it go
We all want to support, we really do
We know that girls go through a lot,
But guys cry too
