When She Cries
Demotional Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I run heading for shelter, a safe-house far away
Trying to escape my agony, to keep my demons from finding me
I try to disconnect my mind, take control of my thoughts
Trying to leave it all behind but I always end up caught

I don't need a goal tonight, don't need advice
Just to be with you, could save my life
You cry yourself to sleep tonight,
Tears run down you cheek
I want to be by your side
To tell you everything's alright

I lay myself to sleep, without you there for me
When I walk through life I walk alone, in the dark
I'll die, without you by my side, that's why I need you
Just to be with you, could save my life

You cry yourself to sleep tonight,
Tears run down you cheek




I want to be by your side
To tell you everything's alright

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Demotional's song "When She Cries" seem to be sung from the perspective of someone who is struggling with their own internal demons, but who finds comfort in being with someone they care about. In the opening lines, the singer describes themselves as running to a safe-house far away to escape their agony and keep their demons from finding them. This suggests that they may have some kind of personal struggle that they are dealing with, and that being with this other person provides them with a reprieve from their own internal conflicts.


Throughout the song, the singer expresses a desire to be with the other person, even if they don't necessarily need any advice or guidance. The repeated line "just to be with you could save my life" reinforces the idea that being with this other person provides the singer with some kind of emotional or psychological support that they can't find elsewhere.


The song takes a turn towards the end, when the singer reveals that they themselves are struggling with the absence of the other person. In the lines "I lay myself to sleep, without you there for me / When I walk through life I walk alone, in the dark", we see that the singer's own emotional stability is tied to the presence of this other person in their life. The final lines of the song, "you cry yourself to sleep tonight / tears run down your cheek / I want to be by your side / to tell you everything's alright", suggest that the singer sees their role in the relationship as one of comfort and support, even if they themselves are also struggling.


Overall, the lyrics of "When She Cries" paint a complex picture of a relationship between two people who are both dealing with their own emotional struggles, but who find comfort in each other's presence. The repeated refrain of "just to be with you could save my life" reinforces the idea that sometimes the simple act of being close to someone we care about can be enough to get us through difficult times.
