You Never See Me Cry

[Verse 1] You come home tired, your day wasn’t kind, I see it in your face, so I push mine aside. You talk about tomorrow, the things we could do, But some things aren’t easy for me like they are for you. You never mean to hurt me, You never say I’m not enough, But my past whispers loudly That I’m never good enough. [Chorus] You never see me cry, I’m sitting right beside you, Tears falling silently While I pretend I’m fine too. And when I can’t hold it in, I disappear behind the bathroom door, Wipe my eyes, take a breath, Then come and sit beside you like before. You never see me cry, You never see the war inside, You see the woman sitting next to you, But not the pain I hide. [Verse 2] You were raised with love, Your mother gave you everything, I learned to hide my feelings And never ask for anything. You suggest things I can’t manage, And I hate myself for that, You never call me useless, But my mind tells me I am. I wonder why you chose me, When you could have someone strong, Someone who could keep up with you And never get things wrong. [Bridge] You don’t hear the voices That tell me I’m a burden, You don’t see the way I punish me For every little thing I’ve done. I know those words aren’t yours, But they’re living in my head… And sometimes I need you to see The tears I never shed. [Chorus] You never see me cry, I’m always right beside you, Fighting battles silently That I never tell you I’m going through. You never see me cry, But maybe someday you’ll understand, I don’t need you to fix me, I just need you to take my hand. You never see me cry… But I’m still here. Still loving you. Still trying. [Outro] Maybe one day I’ll stop saying, “I’m fine.” And you’ll finally see me When I cry.
