Hold It In

I can't let them know

Just hold it all back

You can't let it show

Freedom is just something you lack

Today I just can't let it go

I've got to be strong

Even though that may be wrong

I know it's been to long

It's gets me feeling really low

But I just can't let it show

For stress

Put on a dress

That makes you look care free

For tears

Your reflection in their mirrors

Will be full of beauty and mystery

For hate

You say yes to the date

But don't let him kiss me

For madness

Just don't get mad unless

There is a shown reason to be

Hold it all in

Being walled in

Was never a sin

So just don't let them in

You'll never win

They don't even notice

I come home from school everyday

All tired and stressed

I have nothing to say

Inside I'm a mess

Why can't they leave me alone

I just need thirty minutes at home

All alone

Because right after school

I'm moody

I'm mean

Please just listen to me

•••

No one understands

I just want to cry

Don't really know why

So instead I just lie

And say I'm ok

I give no delay

Of going up to my room

Looking up at the moon

Please just listen to me

Sometimes I just can't breath

From all of the pressure

Of one long

Me being strong

Day

And at night

Of my tiredness in spite

I cry

Don't know why

And I pray

Because there is a way

To be free

From only me

Jesus is the key

And now there is hope

And sadness, well nope

So goodnight and good day

Please just listen to me

Tomorrow please.
