Dry Your Eyes
Angels & Airwaves Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A waterfall
A wonderful bliss but a teardrop falls
You say your goodbye it means nothing
I say that we've tried and we gave our all
We fall to the floor
I'm not buying, I'm not for this
And all you ever do is stall
I am so damn sick of trying
And now we are fucked cause we've wrecked it all
I will not save you

So dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So phony and today is the day it ends

I can't complain
It's been good not great but the time flew by
It came from behind it was flying
It was hard to hold on every time we'd fight
And though it would end it's exhausting
In the cracks that would grow in and out of mind
And into your heart like a virus
It would crawl and would crawl as we laid there blind
And broke you and I

So dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So phony and today is the day it ends

So dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So phony and today is the day it ends
Today it ends
Today it ends

So dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So phony and today is the day it ends

So dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I




Yeah we're here again
So phony and today is the day it ends

Line by Line Meaning

A waterfall
The beginning of a wonderful thing, but also the beginning of tears


A wonderful bliss but a teardrop falls
Although it started off great, there are signs of sadness


You say your goodbye it means nothing
Your words don't hold any weight or true meaning


I say that we've tried and we gave our all
I believe we did all we could, but it wasn't enough


We fall to the floor
We've hit rock bottom


I'm not buying, I'm not for this
I'm not convinced, I can't go along with it


And all you ever do is stall
You're always delaying, never taking action


I am so damn sick of trying
I'm exhausted from all the effort I've put in


And now we are fucked cause we've wrecked it all
We've ruined everything and there's no way to fix it


I will not save you
I'm done trying to fix this, I won't rescue you


So dry your eyes
Stop crying, don't be sad


Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Stand up, don't fake your emotions


Or fix you and I
Let's try to repair our relationship, together


Yeah we're here again
Back in this situation, again


So phony and today is the day it ends
It's fake and it's time to put an end to it


I can't complain
Things weren't bad, but it wasn't perfect either


It's been good not great but the time flew by
It was decent, but the time passed quickly


It came from behind it was flying
It happened unexpectedly and quickly


It was hard to hold on every time we'd fight
It was difficult to hang in there during our arguments


And though it would end it's exhausting
Although the fight would end, the process was tiring


In the cracks that would grow in and out of mind
The issues that arose would penetrate and linger in our minds


And into your heart like a virus
The problems would spread into our hearts like a disease


It would crawl and would crawl as we laid there blind
The issues would continue to grow as we ignored them


And broke you and I
And ultimately destroyed our relationship


Today it ends
The problems will be resolved, today


Today it ends
The problems will be resolved, today


Today it ends
The problems will be resolved, today


Today it ends
The problems will be resolved, today


So dry your eyes
Stop crying, don't be sad


Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Stand up, don't fake your emotions


Or fix you and I
Let's try to repair our relationship, together


Yeah we're here again
Back in this situation, again


So phony and today is the day it ends
It's fake and it's time to put an end to it

Lyrics:

A Waterfall a wonderful bliss
But a Teardrop Falls
You say your goodbye it means nothin
I say that we tried and we gave our all
You fall to the floor I'm not buyin
I'm not for this and all you ever do is stall
I am so damn sick of tryin
And now we are fucked cause we've wrecked it all
I will not save you

So Dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I

So follow me in
Today is the day it ends

I can't complain it's been good, not great
But the time flew by
It came from behind, it was flying
It was hard to hold on every time we'd fight
And though it would end, it's exhausting
It left cracks that would grow in and out of mine
And into your heart like a virus
It would crawl and would crawl and we lay there blind
It broke you and I

So Dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So follow me in, today is the day it ends

So Dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So follow me in, today is the day it ends

Today it ends (ends ends ends)
Today it ends (ends ends ends)

So Dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So follow me in, today is the day it ends

So Dry your eyes
Get on your feet don't pretend to cry
Or fix you and I
Yeah we're here again
So follow me in, today is the day it ends
