Hey little boy

Come see the life I've made for you

It hasn't always been fair

And easy is never a word I'd chose to use

Hey little boy

Hold on to the idea you were born out of love

When things seem their darkest

It should give strength to rise above

Don't let them tell you boys don't cry

It's not weakness to let them see you cry

Don't let them tell you boys don't cry

It's not weakness to let them see you cry

Hey little boy

I know it's hard to walk through that door (walk through that door)

To feel the source of heart ache

And those unresolved feelings from before (from feelings before)

Hey little boy

Don't reason away that sense of loss

Dark moments can whip your childhood away

Without ever knowing the cost

Don't let them tell you boys don't cry

It's not weakness to let them see you cry

Don't let them tell you boys don't cry

It's not weakness to let them see you cry

Struggled in silence while years fell away

Finding the strength you had so much to say

Painful memories hide in innocent youth

Finding your voice meant voicing the truth

Hey Little boy

It's time you forgave yourself

This was never your fault

This should not have been your hell

Don't let them tell you boys don't cry

It's not weakness to let them see you cry

Don't let them tell you boys don't cry

It's not weakness to let them see you cry

Hey little boy let them see you cry

Hey now, hey little boy

Don't hide those tears, show them all you can cry

Hey now, hey little boy

Hey now, hey little boy

Hey now, hey little boy
