BRELAND - Real Men Don't Cry Lyrics

Got some sides you'll never know
Things I handle on my own
Show the highs and hide the lows
That's just how it goes
Been through things you'll never see
I've got some painful memories
Nights that I can barely sleep
But pretend that I'm at peace

When there's million things been on my mind
I smile and say I'm doin' fine
Anything to keep it all inside
'Cause real men don't cry
At least that's what we tell ourselves
And hurt the ones who try to help
Wish that we could leave it all behind
That real men don't cry

Let 'em fall in private rooms
Held 'em back in quite a few
After all that I've been through
I'm tryna start anew
This kinda cycle's hard to fight
Broken dads and sons alike
Holdin' onto shame and pride
Tryin' to survive

With a million things been on my mind
I smile and say I'm doin' fine
Anything to keep it all inside
'Cause real men don't cry
At least that's what we tell ourselves
And hurt the ones who try to help
Wish that we could leave it all behind
That real men don't cry

And you might say that I'm sorely mistaken
That showing my emotions is a weakness
That type of thinkin' makes me wanna cry

A million things been on my mind
I smile and say I'm doin' fine
Anything to keep it all inside
'Cause real men don't cry
At least that's what we tell ourselves
And hurt the ones who try to help
Wish that we could leave it all behind
That real men don't cry

Go ahead and dry your eyes
Nothing's wrong with you and I
