Analysis of The True Tears That Hide Behind
My tears lie a story.
My tears lie a journey.
My tears lie my strength.
My tears lie my courage.
My tears lie who hurt me.
My tears lie who loved me.
My tears lie who left me.
My tears lie who here with me.
Everytime I cry, I live life,
You can have a testimony without a test.
