10. Cry a River (4:01)
[Verse 1]
Turn off the lights and close your eyes and tell me what you see
I'll bet it doesn't have a goddamn thing to do with me
There's nothing left to say
I finally know the truth about you
You come alive you played it well I was the last to know
My premonition was the only thing that let it show
I gave you everything
But I could never pacify you
[Chorus 1]
So go on and cry me a river
Don't say this will haunt you forever
It never did, it never will
[Verse 2]
Tear it away I wanna see just what you really are
And rip the veil that hides that wretched soul you call a heart
This is my agony
But I return to stay beside you
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
Vows are not meant to be broken
You never cared for a moment
You never did you never will
[Bridge]
Now I know the truth about you
All you need I will deny you
I'll be damned to stay beside you
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 3]
All that you see you devour
The money the greed and the power
You always did you always will
[Outro]
Now I know the truth about you
All you need I will deny you
Turn off the lights and close your eyes and tell me what you see
I'll bet it doesn't have a goddamn thing to do with me
There's nothing left to say
I finally know the truth about you
You come alive you played it well I was the last to know
My premonition was the only thing that let it show
I gave you everything
But I could never pacify you
[Chorus 1]
So go on and cry me a river
Don't say this will haunt you forever
It never did, it never will
[Verse 2]
Tear it away I wanna see just what you really are
And rip the veil that hides that wretched soul you call a heart
This is my agony
But I return to stay beside you
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
Vows are not meant to be broken
You never cared for a moment
You never did you never will
[Bridge]
Now I know the truth about you
All you need I will deny you
I'll be damned to stay beside you
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 3]
All that you see you devour
The money the greed and the power
You always did you always will
[Outro]
Now I know the truth about you
All you need I will deny you
