This Is Why

Late Night Alumni · Other Songs - Late Night Alumni

Ever since I remember

I've held it in

Held it all



Somehow I felt comfortable

Behind my wall

Behind it all



This is why I don't cry

This is why I don't cry



Tears they only compromise

Things I need to visualize



This is why I don't cry

This is why I don't cry



Tears they only minimize

Everything I keep inside



I bet you think I'm lonely

You may be right

I just might



And if you want me to break down

It would be a sight

But not tonight



This is why I don't cry

This is why I don't cry



Tears they only compromise

Things I need to visualize



This is why I don't cry

This is why I don't cry



Tears they only minimize

Everything I keep inside
