why do I have to hide my tears

burying them away all these years

why do I have to keep my pain inside

and fake a smile while the pain I hide

everyone else can let their pain out

scream until they feel better and shout

I always listen to every hurting person who comes to me

while I just tuck my hurt away so no one can see



Chorus

doesn't anyone care that I am hurting

dying inside, my soul is burning

doesn't anyone see the pain in my eyes

why are they so caught up in my lies

I plastered a smile on my face today

doesn't anyone notice that I'm not okay



why do I have to bury my heart in the sand

so that no one knows who I really am

why do I deny to others that I am broken

ad crying so many tears that I am choking

everyone else gives their hurt away like candy

and let it all out, they express themselves so freely

do I always have to stay silent through the storm

curling up into a ball to keep myself warm

Chorus



I have tried to fix my heart with glue

but then I realized that I need you

I need you



cause you can see when I am hurting

you can see my soul as it's burning

you look at me and see the pain in my eyes

you were never fooled by any of my lies

you watched me plaster this smile on my face

and then you reached out and saved me with your grace

you took me and made me brand new

you are my cure and my hope, I need you



I need you like air I breathe

I need you, you're all I need

I need you like desserts need rain

I need you, only you can heal my pain

I need you like plants need the sun

I need you, you are the holy one

I need you Jesus

I need you Jesus
