This emotionally charged track explores the societal pressure on women to always appear strong and unemotional. The artist, Thuy, delves into the struggle of maintaining a facade of strength while dealing with personal pain and emotional turmoil. The refrain "Girls like me don't cry" is a poignant commentary on how women are often expected to suppress their emotions. Through her lyrics, Thuy challenges this notion and expresses the need for emotional release. The song also underscores the importance of feeling safe and secure in one's vulnerability, as she yearns for someone who will 'keep her safe' during these times. Ultimately, it's a powerful call for authenticity and emotional honesty, defying societal norms that demand otherwise.
