And I Cry Silently

They're are a million reasons
as to why I sit alone and cry
some stream of endless tears
that time has failed to dry

My heart is broken
and it seems I don't know why

I thought that everything
that happened in the past
would all be washed away
but it just keeps coming back

Beneath this huge black cloud
a cloud as black as that of night.

And I cry silently so afraid
as I see the pain revealed
through night's of my youth
time and time again

and I cry silently so ashamed
knowing now just why this cloud
so dark and angrys been hanging over me

and I cry silently so enraged
because I know I'm not the only one
this has happened to
There are so many just like me
yet, to stand where I have stood

and I cry silently so helpless
not knowing what to do
except to shed a stream of
endless tears for me and you
