Amanda says: “A close friend inspired me to write Beautiful Tears and I’ll forever be grateful. She made me realize that instead of running away from what I’ve been through, I should be sharing my story to inspire others and let them know that you’re not alone. There is always somebody to turn to and I hope me and my music can be a “somebody” for you. What I think a lot of people don’t understand is that crying doesn’t mean you’re weak. What it really means is you’re strong enough to deal with your emotions. Whatever you may be going through, I hope this song helps you on your journey to the other side, because you WILL get there”.
