I'm strong enough to cry

I'm strong enough to cry
I've been holding everything inside
Telling everyone that I'm alright
Smiling just to get through every day
Even when I'm breaking on the way
They see strength, but they don't see the cost
All the nights when I felt completely lost
I got used to hiding how I feel
Trying to pretend the pain's not real

But I'm tired of pretending I'm okay
(Tired of)
Tired of pushing all my tears away

I'm strong enough to cry
(I'm strong enough) to stop saying I'm fine
You don't have to be fine
I don't have to hide
(Don't hide)
I don't have to lie this time
Every tear that falls from my eyes
Isn't weakness, it's part of my fight
It's your fight
I survived the darkest nights
I'm strong enough to cry

I've been carrying this weight alone
Trying to be someone made of stone
But I'm human, I can feel the pain
I don't have to be numb again
All the hurt I buried deep inside
All the times I swallowed down my pride
It didn't make me stronger in the end
It just made me break again

And I don't wanna live behind a wall
I don't wanna hide myself at all

I'm strong enough to cry
Strong enough to stop saying I'm fine
I don't have to hide
(Don't hide)
I don't have to lie this time
Every tear that falls from my eyes
Isn't weakness, it's part of my fight
It's your fight
I survived the darkest nights
I'm strong enough to cry

For so long, I thought I had to be strong
Never show when something was wrong
But holding it in only broke my heart
Now I know this is where healing starts
I don't have to carry this alone
I don't have to pretend I'm strong

I'm strong enough to cry
Strong enough to let the truth inside
I don't have to hide
I don't have to run and deny
Every tear is helping me heal
Every moment helps me feel
I'm finally alive inside
I'm strong enough to cry

I'm not weak for feeling pain
I'm not weak for being human
I'm strong enough to cry
