Crying
Sugarcult Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stitching it together with the seams wide open
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot see at all
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot breathe at all
What do you do when you're alone?
What do you do when no one's home?
What do you do when you're alone?
Out of control, now on your own
Never waking up
The alarm is broken
Running in a dream and it's like slow motion
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot see at all
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot breathe at all
What do you do when you're alone?
What do you do when no one's home?
What do you do when you're alone?
Out of control, now on your own
Alone
Is there anyone out there?
Is there anyone now?
All I need are the details
Just to find a way out
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot see at all
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot breathe at all
What do you do when you're alone?
What do you do when no one's home?
What do you do when you're alone?
Out of control, now on your own
You can't break away what you cannot change
You can't break away
You can't break away what you cannot change
You can't break away
The Sugarcult's song "Crying" talks about a feeling of helplessness and loneliness. The song tells the story of a person who has broken their life and is desperately trying to piece it back together. The lyrics emphasize the emotional turmoil of the individual, who is in great distress and feels like they are falling apart. They feel out of control, unable to cope with the challenges life is throwing at them. The lyrics indicate that the individual is crying uncontrollably until they cannot see or breathe. Even when they are alone, they still struggle to cope with their emotions and the feeling of being lost.
The lyrics also contain a sense of hopelessness, as the person is searching for someone or something to help them get out of their situation. The lyrics 'Is there anyone out there? Is there anyone now? All I need are the details just to find a way out' represents their desperation for a helping hand but cannot find one. The person is trapped and feels like they are unable to escape, no matter how hard they try. The message in the song is that sometimes in life, we feel lost and helpless, and it is okay to cry and express emotions.
