Late at night, I hear your voice in the rain
Soft and warm, like a song in my veins
You used to hold me when the world felt cold
Now I stand here, trying to be bold
I know you worry, I see it in your eyes
But I've learned to hide the storm inside
Mom, look, I'm not crying, believe me
I've built my wall so high, you can't see
Every tear, I've turned into silence
Every scar, a lesson in defiance
Mom, look, I'm not crying, believe me
Some nights, the pain gets too loud to ignore
So I carve my sorrow into my skin once more
It's not about leaving, it's just how I cope
A fragile fight between darkness and hope
I know you wonder if I'm truly fine
But strength and sorrow walk a fragile line
Mom, look, I'm not crying, believe me
I've built my wall so high, you can't see
Every tear, I've turned into silence
Every scar, a lesson in defiance
Mom, look, I'm not crying, believe me
But sometimes in the dark, I'll whisper your name
Like a prayer, like a spark in the rain
If I fall, will you still catch me
Or will I learn to save myself completely
Mom, look, I'm not crying, believe me
But I miss the days when you could see me
I'm standing strong, just like you said
But sometimes I wish you'd see the tears I never
I'm standing strong, just like you said
