Cry Child

Here’s to you standing square

Waiting for the room to come around and care

About your sweet sullen eyes

The way you softly step aside

How you toss your drunken sighs

Aside to bait the empty lives

Here’s to you, at the edge of the room

Watching like there’s something that you’ve got to prove

To this shining entourage

Enjoying their lives at large

Touting big security

At least you’ve got your mystery.

Cry Child

Try child

To live in an ungrateful world

It must be hard to hurt so good

Weep love,

For deep love

Walk away from the past

Give yourself a second chance.

And some will follow you without a doubt

Remembering how they’ve been left out.

The smile on my face

The way I imitate the grace

I see in you back to your face

Is your place in this crowd.

Here’s to you, sulking and scared

Pretending that you never really cared

About loves you now despise

Or the sparkle in the eyes

Of a new love on the rise

You better learn to compromise.

Cry Child

Sigh child

There’s always something wrong.

Where do you belong?
