Men Can't Cry

Sorrow haunting me day after day,
my love shunned seemingly tossed away.
Unknown feelings I've tried to convey,
have gone unheeded day after day.
Men Can't Cry

For years I've tried to be open and free,
I've wanted to reveal the true inner me,
begging and pleading even on one knee,
I could not get my love to love me.
Men Can't Cry

Everyday I sit here by myself all alone,
The one I love seems always to be gone.
Friends say even with my love I am alone,
my love's actions they cannot condone.
Men Can't Cry

Now I lay here at the end of my rope,
having tried eating, liquor, and dope.
My love to love me is my only hope,
if not I will have no way to cope.
Men Can't Cry

I've always been taught that men can't cry,
but what would they say if they had to try,
with heart crushed and wanting to die,
I think they would all say, "Men Can Cry".
