Let me cry

Sometimes I just want to cry so loud,
and have the world hear what I want to say.
But everyone has their earmuffs on,
and the gusts blow my voice away.

I’m left with the snow swirling around me,
and the world moves on and on inside.
Moving on next to the fireplace,
away from the stormy pain.

I just want to cry, cry, cry,
and let out all the pain.
Just tell it to the world,
even if they have their ears in chains.

 

I just want to cry, cry, cry.
