Verse 1:
Men hurt, too
We shrug off rain, take the blame
That's what we're taught to do
But behind these cold, slick granite eyes
Are tears trying to burst through
Men hurt, too

Verse 2:
Men feel pain
Been 30 days since I heard you say
I'll never see you again
Trying to make some sense of what went wrong
Is driving me insane
Men feel pain

Bridge 1:
How'd a simple spat turn to an all out war
That blew apart our stubborn hearts
And drove you flaming through that door

Verse 3:
Men do cry
All my dreams are frivolous schemes
Without you by my side
I'm an aimless gray, dry tumbleweed
Stumbling through life
Men do cry

Bridge 2:
I'm sick of all this stupid macho bull
That makes me hide, deep inside
This confused and aching fool

Verse 4:
Men hurt, too
We shrug off rain, take the blame
That's what we're taught to do
But if you think you're the only one
Who feels broken and bruised
Just remember that men hurt, too
Yeah, men hurt, too
