No Tears

At a second glance

You thought you recognised despair

For a fraction of a second

You were searching for a reason

You pretended cheerfully,

But instead you tried to hide away

When everybody's laughter

Seems to rip you all apart

And your life carries on the same

And your life will be the same

Going back again to see

Stages from the recent past

But everywhere you turn

There is no chance to continue

Nothing really holds you back

>From stepping through that yesterday

For every new beginning

There will be some other end

And when you cry there are no tears left for liberation

You don't listen to your own explanations

There are no rules you left behind from your desperation

There's no need to fear the way, that you've led

You'll run again,

Faster than you've ever been

You don't feel the cold,

It's never been like this before

Determination in your eyes,

Now you don't know the reasons why

You can't say goodbye

But you never really said hello
