Who Will Cry

someone once asked, 'who will cry for the little boy? '
the little boy who has known no joy
the little boy who cries himself to sleep
the little boy who always weeps
the answer was he'd cry for him
he'd cry for the boy who went out on a limb
and got his soul beaten, battered, and more
but still kept goin, not knowing what's in store
now i'll ask you the very same
who'll cry for the girl who cannot be tamed
who'll cry for the girl whose alone everyday
who'll cry for the girl that's been hurt in every way
who'll cry for the girl whose afraid of rejection
who'll cry for the girl that's the opposite of perfection
who'll cry for the girl whose run out of tears
who'll cry for the girl whose been scarred by her fears
the answer is i'll cry for she
the little girl inside of me
we cry for ourselves, then we cry for you
cause in the end we always do.
