Big Girls Don't Cry

''Big girls don't cry''
Remember that being said
As tears poured down my face
Crazy thoughts ran through my head

''Big girls don't cry
Don't show any emotion
Keep your woes hidden
Don't show that you're broken''

''Big girls don't cry''
Is all I remember being told
Right from an early age
I was taught to be cold

Now the floodgates have opened
Tears fall down like rain
That phrase runs through my head
Each time it brings more pain

So I guess I'm still a child
'Cause all I do now is cry
Holding my head in my hands
Wondering when I will die

Guess I'm just a little girl
Letting out an audible sigh
Feeling all alone in this world
Knowing big girls don't cry
