Cry a River

Lyrics

[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] So go on and cry me a river Don't say this will haunt you forever It never did, it never will [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] So go on and cry me a river Don't say this will haunt you forever It never did, it never will [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
