Why do these tears fall?
I see no reason for them.
What have I done,
that they fall without reason?

Why must I cry,
when all I need is sleep?
But everytime I lay my head,
these tears begin to fall.

I feel as though I'm drowning,
under these useless tears.
How long before they fade and dry?
How long before this heals?

Is there a simple cure,
to stop even a single tear?
To stop this saddened spirit.
Is there a prayer to pray?

Can someone help me through?
Or is this a single's mission?
Why am I so scared of life,
beyond my childhood?

What is there to cry about?
that I cry in the midst of my sleep.
that my pillow fills with tears.
Why can't I break out?

Is heaven really that far off?
Or can I float up on my tears?
Can sadness bring me back to life?
Can it help me to feel love?

Why do these tears fall?
that I can't see myself.
Are they life's true blinders?
Or am I losing life?

I wish for just one day
they'd cease so I could see.
So I could conquer all my fears,
and turn to who I'm called to be.

But would I be myself?
For my tears are part of me.
And everytime I weep or cry,
I slowly crumple and fall apart.

Why?
