I don't remember much, I tried to put it aside

All I know is I was empty, scared, and frozen inside

You were away, hospital stays for nights

Something was wrong and you were hurting and we didn't know why

And then we learned the news, remember daddy cried

Nothing's worse than seeing someone so strong so petrified

I didn't know whether to scream or die

So I just covered up my eyes pretending everything's fine

Oh, no, I never showed you all my tears

'cause I don't want it to be something that's real

And I hoped that somehow my love might make it go

And I apologize for never showing I cared

But with all the fear and pain, I felt no words could compare

I was so wrong, it wasn't strong not to share

The feelings in my heart, my nightmares, and the dreams that I bear

Oh, no, I never showed you all my tears

'cause I don't want it to be something that's real

And I hoped that somehow my love might make it go

How could I, how could I go

Go so long and not let you know

That I'm so scared and so angry, too?

It's so unfair, why did this happen to you?

Oh, no

Oh, no, I never showed you all my tears

'cause I don't want it to be something that's real

And I hoped that somehow my love might make it go

Make it go
