i don't want you to cry too

They get mad sometimes at things that seem dumb I don't even know how it happened so fast He went numb I don't know why I felt so bad It happened every day I guess I was just surprised that his way of thinking was so gray We all put them down so fast They can't handle being last Don't you see that if they knew How stressed that we sometimes get They would understand regret And say I don't want you to cry too? Some hear just one word and think that that's their cue But some of them just say to me I don't want you to cry too To be dreading the end just at the beginning He wasn't like the others outside playing and spinning They picked favorites but it didn't bother me The fact that they are fragile is just part of reality We all put them down so fast They can't handle being last Don't you see that if they knew How stressed that we sometimes get They would understand regret And say I don't want you to cry too? Sometimes time doesn't heal and what they're dealing with is real Sometimes it's okay to not be okay I guess what I'm trying to say is that they don't even have to play When they have a mind that thinks like clay
