Cry quietly

Cry quietly in a corner,
don't make a scene,
don't let anyone know that
something's wrong.
Remember not to be mean.
Cry quietly in a corner,
don't drown in your sorrow
you only have to live through today,
you can kill yourself tomorrow.
Cry quietly in a corner,
shield yourself from the world
for all they know you just
like to cause trouble
just like a bratty little girl.
Cry quietly in a corner,
don't let them see your pain.
What's the most that they can do, help?
But what would you gain?
Cry quietly in a corner,
they'll never know what's wrong
when you try to tell they say's
"Those damn sad songs"
Cry quietly in a corner,
like the whiner they think you are
like they care about the reason.
Your wrist looks like it has bars.
