Sometimes I Cry

Sometimes I Cry

Verse 1

I tried not to think of you

It was as if I was holding my breath

I couldn't go further

I just had to stop at that moment

I was only making matters worse

By trying to erase you from my mind

Verse 2

On better days I don't cry any tears

But my sadness keeps on growing

Sometimes I wish I was numb so I wouldn't feel a single emotion

I just need relief from the suffering that I'm going through

Verse 3

When the pain decreases I know that I' closer to smiling again

But whenever it doesn't

I know that I'll have to be as strong as I can

Other times I fall deeper into the dark

Bridge 1

Sometimes I cry when things aren't going my way

Sometimes I cry out of pity for myself

Sometimes I cry to ease some of my pain

Sometimes I cry to get attention

Chorus 1

Sometimes I cry when I envision you holding me

I feel the need to reach out so I can be next to you

Even though my heart knows what it wants

Sometimes I cry when my world is upside down

Chorus 2

Sometimes I cry when I envision you holding me

I feel the need to reach out so I can be next to you

But my conscience is keeping me from you

Even though I know what I really want

Sometimes I cry when my world is upside down
