Boys Do Cry

I grew up thinking that boys couldn't cry
Oh well, that was a lie
I covered up feelings with whiskey and fights
Just like one of the guys

I've been walking through life with my eyes closed
Follow the rules like my shadow
Heart beating right through my blouse

Don't need to lie, lie, lie, lie anymore
'Cause I swear that boys do cry
When we're alone, when we're alone
Holding it in don't make you stronger
Or like your father
Oh, boys do cry
But we don't let it show

Made you feel smaller so I could be tough
Oh no, that wasn't right
I wanna paint my nails colors without feeling judged
Who made pink a crime?

They say "just be a man," like it's easy
RIP, bury your feelings
When it hurts, rub it in dirt, in dirt

Don't need to lie, lie, lie, lie anymore
'Cause I swear that boys do cry
When we're alone, when we're alone
Holding it in don't make you stronger
Or like your father
Oh, boys do cry
But we don't let it show

(Don't need to lie, lie, lie, lie anymore, lie, lie anymore)
(Oh, boys do cry)
(But we don't let it show)
(But we don't let it show)
(But we don't let it show)
