No More Crys

No more crys

No more tears

No more seeing things coming your way

Cause your head is holding high, while your standing still

Dreams stay big

With a rising sky

Beach higher and higher

Despite the drought in your eyes

To focus and realize what you got

My o my

You gotta stop crying

Tears of joy

Tears of pain

It will all fight you in vain

You will win this battle

Through all this scribble, scrabble

No more crys

I repeat

No more crys

This to shall have you wipe your eyes
