If one day you are walking by and see me crying
You don't need to stop by to check on how I am fending
I am only shedding tears for the mistakes I have done
And try to pick up the pieces so I can move on
Walk on by
You might see me sitting on the subway with my face down looking sad
Waiting for a train that's heading south
It's okay I need some time alone
To pour out the burdens troubling my heart and soul
Walk on by
You might be walking with an umbrella on
And approached me in the rain all soaked, cold and alone
Please, l just got my heart broken by my fiancé
I am in the rain maybe it will wash away my tears and pains
For I thought I fell in love for the right reasons
Walk on by
If you notice am depressed and looking pale
You feel concerned and want to lend a helping hand
Please walk away and don't bother
I have just been duped of my savings by a brother
I am just trying to get over it, if I can ever trust another
Walk on by
If you see me walking on the street disdain and frustrated
There is no need to come over to cheer me up for a friend
I am just trying to figure out the reasons why I have been working so hard for years
And can't afford a decent apartment for more than 5 years
Walk on by
If you see me at the park boarding a bus heading to the village
It because I have gotten fed up with the high cost of living in the city
I am going back home, I can't stand it anymore
Living a life with nothing to show for
Walk on by
If you see me sad and mournful and you feel like given me a hug
Please don't, I have just lost someone dear to me to sickness not long
I can't imagine how I could keep living in this world
I have just lost the very thing treasured in this world
Am mournful maybe the sun will shine again in my heart today
Walk on by
I am not trying to push you away from comforting me
Or from sharing in my pains as a friend that's dear to me
Walking by helps me meditate and get over the situations am going through
It gives me time alone to figure out how I can start life anew
Walk on by
You don't need to stop by to check on how I am fending
I am only shedding tears for the mistakes I have done
