I have a secret, I need it out.
My heart has drowned, I have to shout.
I have a closet full of things,
That i have horded throughout many years.
I want to open, give it wings.
Set them free my Jar of Tears.
My first Jar my parents gave,
I took it quietly, I took it brave.
My last Jar my husband gave,
their over-flowing i'de rather be dead.
Row's and Row's half are from him,
It breaks my heart,
I can't take no more in.
My Jars of Tear's,
I've horded throughout the year's.
My heart, my soul, my laughs have drowned,
the soulless girl,
I have been crowned,
So many year's i've kept these things,
Finally i want to give them wing's.
Set me free from my Jars of Tears.
