hit my jaw with an uppercut

or make me dice an onion

but i will keep my eyes dried up

so we can last 'til august

ooo

but my silence knows no end

ooo

again and again

i hold it in

and take a deep breath

and scream into a pillow

while you call your mom

and tell her i'm a stone wall

tell her i'm lying to you

like i always do

cause i never say what's on my mind

but i swear i always try

i just never learned

never learned

never learned

how to cry

hmm

hmm

ooo

cut my lip with an iron fist

but i won't move a muscle

i won't show the lumps in my throat

even as we crumble

ooo

and i'm driving drunk again

ooo

cry for help with my silence

i hold it in

and take a deep breath

and scream into a pillow

while you call your mom

and tell her i'm a stone wall

tell her i'm lying to you

like i always do

cause i never say what's on my mind

but i swear i always try

i just never learned

never learned

never learned

how to cry

i just never learned

never learned

never learned

how to cry

hmm

hmm

look through the window

i watch him as he goes

put up those walls he learned from all her ghosts

but it's never enough

it's never enough

if I open up

will you cut me off?
