My Tears Won't Linger

I won't let my tears linger on you
For they smudge my clarity, my view
My guard is up and my walls are high
For I will not be phased come the goodbye
I dare you to try to ruin my soul
For I have filled in all my heart's holes
Go ahead and plan to string me along
For you don't realize I've become strong
I'll know better this time around
For it is courage that I have found
