This Is Why Lyrics
Ever since I remember,
I've held it in,
Held it all
Somehow I felt comfortable,
Behind my wall,
Behind it all
This is why I don't cry
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only compromise
There's no need to visualize
This is why I don't cry
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only minimize
Everything I keep inside
I bet that you think I'm lonely
You may be right
I just might
And if you want me to break down,
It'd be a sight, but not tonight
This is why I don't cry
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only compromise
There's no need to visualize
This is why I don't cry
this is why I don't cry
Tears, they only minimize
Everything I keep inside
This is why I don't cry
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only compromise
There's no need to visualize
This is why I don't cry
this is why I don't cry
Tears, they only minimize
Everything I keep inside
I've held it in,
Held it all
Behind my wall,
Behind it all
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only compromise
There's no need to visualize
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only minimize
Everything I keep inside
You may be right
I just might
And if you want me to break down,
It'd be a sight, but not tonight
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only compromise
There's no need to visualize
this is why I don't cry
Tears, they only minimize
Everything I keep inside
This is why I don't cry
Tears, they only compromise
There's no need to visualize
this is why I don't cry
Tears, they only minimize
Everything I keep inside

It’s perhaps the most tragic thing about life
[Edit: Copied accidentally]
You can’t show your emotions by crying because then people know how you feel. She’s better off not showing her true emotions and feelings because it makes her vulnerable and people can see that and take advantage of her. It’s sad we can’t show our emotions in this crazy world of ours as there’s always people looking for vulnerable prey when they are at their most vulnerable.
“Everything I Keep Inside”
And she can’t heal or process pain and trauma because that puts her at tremendous risk. It’s a sad fact of this world.
