Every single tear,
Falling down along my cheek,
Does it make you feel good?
Or makes you unable to speak?

My tears are nothing,
But just little drops,
Everyday I cry,
And every night they fall,
As I try to sleep,
And lay down on my bed,
No wonder why,
Every night my pillow's wet,

But you know what...

I don't need your help,
I don't need nobody here,
I'm enough for myself,
No need to wipe my tears,

I don't need to try,
I know that someday somehow,
My tears will dry,
On their own...!!!

Every single tear,
Falling down along my cheek,
Does it make you feel strong?
Or makes you weak?

You mean so much to me,
You know that it's true,
So why don't you care for me?
What has happened to you?

I tell myself not to cry,
But these eyes don't listen to me,
Tell me how won't I cry?
When you're the one who's hurting me,

But you know what...

I don't need your help,
I don't need nobody here,
I'm enough for myself,
No need to wipe my tears,

I don't need to try,
I know that someday somehow,
My tears will dry,
On their own...!!!

Yes you listen to me,
And sometimes you don't even do that,
I don't care if you listen or not,
I cry cos' you don't understand,

But you know what...

No matter how much I cry,
I know that someday somehow,
My tears will dry,
On their own...!!!

&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;

&quot;Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. And its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, I&#039;m already better than them.&quot;

When it seems like there&rsquo;s no one left to run to in this empty world you can come to me I&rsquo;ll be your shooting star. You can tell me your dreams I can&rsquo;t promise to make them come true, but I&rsquo;ll be there to pick up the pieces of your broken heart if your dreams happen to fall through&hellip;Unknown
