BOYS DON'T CRY

They say you should just talk about it
But would they listen when I get it started?
Built up all these walls around me
Nothing but my pride to hide me

I won't say I'm broken-hearted
I'm not supposed to know what heart is
Wear nothing but ink on my sleeve
Sinking in my skin, it won't leave

But baby when the lights go out
Nothing's left to ground me
So if I start breaking down
Would you share the pain?

You trace my body with your eyes
But I won't let you read my mind
I only want you for the night
My neck in gold chains
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

And it's a losing hand
I just won't fight this emptiness
It is a no man's land
But don't misunderstand me
'Cause I'm gassed up, I'm frontin'
Like bitch, do I look like I care?

They said I'd be just fine
But I laugh about it every time
I see how fine the line is
In my drink I need no ice
I have it on my hands
It got me feeling like I'm frozen

But baby when the lights go out
Nothing's left to ground me
So if I start breaking it down
Would you share the pain?

You trace my body with your eyes
But I won't let you read my mind
I only want you for the night
My neck in gold chains
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
