No Time to Cry
Cradle of Filth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I get sometimes
A feeling
Sometimes
And I get frightened
Just like you
I get frightened too
but it's
(no no no) No time for heartache
(no no no) No time to run and hide
(no no no) No time for breaking down
(no no no) No time to cry
Sometimes in the world as is you've
Got to shake the hand that feeds you
It's just like Adam says
It's not so hard to understand
It's just like always coming down on
Just like Jesus never came and
What did you expect to find
It's just like always here again it's
(no no no) No time for heartache
(no no no) No time to run and hide
(no no no) No time for breaking down
(no no no) No time to cry
Everything will be alright
Everything will turn out fine
Some nights I still can't sleep
And the voices pass with time
And I keep
Everything will turn out fine
Some nights I still can't sleep
And the voices pass with time
And I keep
No time for tears
No time to run and hide
No time to be afraid of fear
I keep no time to cry
(no no no) No time for heartache
(no no no) No time to run and hide
(no no no) No time for breaking down
(no no no) No time to cry
The lyrics to Cradle of Filth’s song “No Time to Cry” express a common feeling that people experience from time to time. The first lines of the song state, “it’s just a feeling I get sometimes, a feeling sometimes, and I get frightened just like you, I get frightened too.” This opening sequence of lyrics describes the feelings of the singer and the relatable experiences of the listeners – we all feel scared sometimes. However, the song encourages listeners to push past that fear by stating, “no time for heartache, no time to run and hide, no time for breaking down, no time to cry.”
The song goes on to describe the harsh realities of the world we live in. Sometimes, we have to “shake the hand that feeds you,” and things are not always as straightforward as we would like them to be. In this instance, Cradle of Filth reference Adam from the biblical stories – with the line, “It’s just like Adam says; it’s not so hard to understand.” Even if we have different beliefs, we all can appreciate the reference being made in this context. The song continues referencing figures like Jesus, whose return to Earth we’ve been waiting for since his departure. The singer implies that we should not wait around and hold onto this hope but continue living our lives as we are now. The chorus repeats, “no time for heartache, no time to run and hide, no time for breaking down, no time to cry.”
The song finishes with the lines, “no time for tears, no time to run and hide, no time to be afraid of fear, I keep no time to cry.” Here, we can understand the message of the song – we do not have any time to let our fears overcome us. We must continue to move forward and flourish, even when we encounter difficult situations. The song’s message is both powerful and encouraging.

What always amazes me about Cradile of Filth is actually how well spoken and polite the lead singer was on TV but he also had a wicked sense of humor too.
