Heavy metal tears are what the kids are crying

Their tender hearts heal easily while ours are slowly dying

For them when romance fails it's something they can learn from

But when I hear your broken voice I realize how little I know



Heavy metal tears only last for one night

But for myself I believe there's no end in sight



"I want to be your everything" is something only the young can relate to

I used to brag, I used to boast about where my love could take you



I always wanted to believe in love at first sight

But I grew up and realized it's all in my mind



Heavy metal tears only last for one night

But for myself I believe there's no end in sight



Heavy metal tears are what the kids are crying

Their broken hearts heal easily while ours are slowly dying
