​if boys cried

Lyrics

[Intro] (When I say no and I'm drawing the line) (That's when boys cry, boys cry) [Verse 1] Sittin' on the black top One case, two kids in the parking lot We were getting close to openin' up But you were far from soberin' up You wanna be a rockstar, I lied I'd rather be a pop star, ooh Afraid of all the love you could lose That's the deepest thing I think you could do [Pre-Chorus] You're wishing I'd stop talking so I can coddle All your pain and pass you another bottle Couldn't see that it stinged through the buzz You would never have noticed because [Chorus] If boys cried, you would've seen the tears Insidе of my eyes, you would've had thе guts, but Everybody knows that you'd rather not feel things Only stick around when the going gets easy If boys cried, your father would've showed you That it's alright to let somebody know you I think you'd think twice and save me a lifetime If boys cried, if boys cried [Verse 2] Don't give me that look, the boy who cried wolf Your signal has cheapened I should call your bluff when you call it love 'Cause I call it treason [Pre-Chorus] You're wishing I'd stop talking so I can coddle All your pain and pass you another bottle Couldn't see that it stinged through the buzz You would never have noticed because [Chorus] If boys cried, you would've seen the tears Inside of my eyes, you would've had the guts, but Everybody knows that you'd rather not feel things Only stick around when the going gets easy If boys cried, your father would've showed you That it's alright to let somebody know you I think you'd think twice and save me a lifetime If boys cried, if boys cried [Post-Chorus] It's not your fault you can't cry to me You've got your walls, but the irony is When I say no and I'm drawing the line That's when boys cry, boys cry [Bridge] Lost me once and you kicked it to full throttle Called me up always drunk off a couple bottles Couldn't see that it stinged through the buzz You would never have noticed because [Chorus] If boys cried, you would've seen the tears Inside of my eyes, you would've had the guts, but Everybody knows that you'd rather not feel things Only stick around when the going gets easy If boys cried, your father would've showed you That it's alright to let somebody know you I think you'd think twice and save me a lifetime If boys cried, if boys cried [Post-Chorus] It's not your fault you can't cry to me You've got your walls, but the irony is When I say no and I'm drawing the line That's when boys cry, boys cry
