i never cry

deeper in the past i go
with every passing day i know
there's something that i remember

pulling at the soul inside me
all the time as if to blind me
something i won't surrender

(bridge)
yeah i remember you and all you meant to me
how you gave it all away and sent the bill to me

(chorus)
but i won't let you win a single day
someday i am going to find a way
don't have to tell you why
not even gonna try
i'll keep it all inside
i never cry

i recall the words you told me
lies you told so you could hold me
don't think i don't remember

you took my heart and then you sold it
beat it up and let it go
you took it, i didn't give it

(back to bridge, then chorus)
