They say boys don't cry
No, we just fucking die inside
And we'll say it's fine, get so used to lying
We just keep it in
So tell me is it foolish pride
Or have all of our tears run dry
Well, I'm gon' say it's fine, but you know I'm lying
What's the point of it
Yeah, you know that I know I'm hurt
But I'm scared to face my fears, scared to make it worse
I'm so tired, overworked, scared my flame might burn out
Before it ever really burns bright
Can I just cry for a minute
Say my goodbyes to this feeling

Before it ever really burns bright
Can I just cry for a minute
Say my goodbyes to this feeling
Never learned how to just let it go
I never meant to keep pain this close
Can I just cry for a minute
Say my goodbyes to this prison
Gotta learn how to hold on to hope
I never meant to keep pain this close
So tell me can I just
Cry

I'm so tired, overworked, scared my flame might burn out
Before it ever really burns bright
Can I just cry for a minute
Say my goodbyes to this feeling
Never learned how to just let it go
I never meant to keep pain this close
Can I just cry for a minute
Say my goodbyes to this prison
Gotta learn how to hold on to hope
I never meant to keep pain this close
So tell me can I just
Cry
So tell me can I just
Cry
So tell me can I just
