Tears
By Jessica Bromwich
[verse 1]
I really want to know why,
when I want to cry,
you keep throwing more crap at me,
so I don't get time.
Holding it all inside,
my inner chamber where I hide,
too busy to let it out,
my tears gagged,
unable to shout.
[chorus]
Tears set free....
Tears part of me......
Part of the ocean,
lost without a home,
My tears now all alone.
Tears go break free,
learn how to be,
liberated out there and carefree.
Once out there you'll fly,
be able to loosen those shackles,
and say goodbye....
Move forward and see,
your future can be bright
If you just fight and break free.
[verse 2]
My chamber now full,
tears overflowing,
the pain stale and dull.
You just keep asking more of me,
don't worry guys,
just be happy.
I'm OK, as you can see,
my exterior all calm and carefree.
I can keep it in a little longer,
before my flood banks break.
Just ask a little more now,
I can do it, a piece of cake!
[chorus]
Tears set free....
Tears part of me......
Part of the ocean,
lost without a home,
My tears now all alone.
Tears go break free,
learn how to be,
liberated out there and carefree.
Once out there you'll fly,
be able to loosen those shackles,
and say goodbye....
Move forward and see,
your future can be bright
if you just fight and break free.
[verse 3]
Finally time to take time for me,
my tears and pain need to be set free.
I'll just say it nicely, "I need a break".
Easy right? A big mistake!
It's now all about you,
how hard it all is,
without me, just you.
Gas lit, I should know your hardship,
no help for me, get a grip!
Self centred you'll never realise why,
I need to cut loose and say goodbye.
[chorus]
Tears set free....
Tears part of me......
Part of the ocean,
lost without a home,
My tears now all alone.
Tears go break free,
learn how to be,
liberated out there and carefree.
Once out there you'll fly,
be able to loosen those shackles,
and say goodbye....
Move forward and see,
your future can be bright
if you just fight and break free.
Tears set free....
Tears part of me......
