I Cry
I cry, I cry, I cry
Tonight I do not lie
Tonight I do not fight
To be a man and hold it inside
I do not die but I do die
With each passing stab
With every walking away
With every summer soiled rain
That ruins my imperfect day
I try, I try, I try
To turn my world downside up
To keep me in your mind
No, not your memory hind
But you see me yet are blind
That though I be one of a kind
The sea be filled with finer fishes u can find
I swim as fast as I can into your net
Yet I drown and down I drown
I do try to succeed, but yeah do fail
I crawl, I walk, I run, then fall hard
Can't fly, you'll soon find why
Start again and complete the circle
I try to delet the byes from all
Who tried to love me
To drown my river in the world's ocean
I pry, I pry, I pry
How do you live your life?
How do I talk to Him and get an answer?
What do I fill this hollow being with?
I wanna know dear stranger
That I may live as men ought to
For I search for death more than life
My mind's splitting from my life
Taking a walk with my heart on the numb, numb side
Hoping someday to fly on the wild, wild side
Why, why, why
Do things never work out for me
Can't you love me
Don't you love me
Won't you love me
Do I drive everyone away
Do I hurt this way
Do I feel...why do I feel?
Lie, lie, lie
With each extra-grinned smile that reveal a dimple
With each try again, and winner's quote:
Quitters never win, winners never quit
Didn't quit, didn't win, just taking a swim
With each mask behind each write
You write about you? Right. Lie.
