It's Ok to Cry
J Rice Lyrics

I don′t know where to go from here
I'm lost and unsure of what to do next.

'Cause anywhere that I go you′re there
I can't escape the painful memories of you, they follow me everywhere.

So many streets different names
There are countless paths in life, each with its own identity.

But they all lead to the same lonely place
Despite their differences, these paths all seem to converge on the same destination: loneliness.

And I don't know how to start again
I've hit rock bottom and I don't know how to pick myself back up.

Don't even know where the hurt began
I can't pinpoint the exact source of my pain and heartache.

′Cause when you′re this low
In moments like this, it's difficult to see any hope or positivity.

Everywhere you try to go
No matter where I turn or what I do, I can't seem to escape my despair.

Looks like a dead end
All my efforts feel futile and unproductive. It appears as though I'm stuck in this rut forever.

And now that everythings over.
I'm left trying to pick up the pieces of a failed relationship and mend my broken heart.

'Ill cry (if I still hurt)
It's okay to release my emotions and cry if I'm still hurting.

I′ll cry ('cause after I feel better)
Crying can be cathartic and a necessary step towards healing.

It′s too hard to keep inside
Suppressing my emotions is too difficult and not healthy in the long run.

All the emotion I feel tonight
My feelings are valid and worthy of acknowledgement.

You think its worst
Others may judge me for crying, thinking it's a sign of weakness or failure.

If thats the only answer
Crying may be the only way for me to cope and process my emotions constructively.

It's so hard falling out of love
The end of a relationship and the process of moving on can be incredibly challenging and heartbreaking.

Finding yourself after you break up
Part of the healing process is rediscovering my own identity and sense of self.

(It's ok to cry)
Crying is a natural and healthy response to emotional pain, and there shouldn't be any shame or stigma associated with it.

Felt like we were on a tied rope
Our relationship felt precarious and unstable, as if we were on the verge of falling apart at any moment.

I lost my balance when you let go
The end of the relationship caused me to feel unstable and unmoored, as if I'd lost my footing in life.

I get up again
Despite being knocked down by heartbreak, I'm resilient and capable of getting back up again.

I fall in love again
I'm open and willing to love again, to take a chance on someone new.

I gotta heal my soul
Before I can move on and love again, I need to take care of myself and mend my emotional wounds.

And when the past brings back the pain
Sometimes painful memories and emotions resurface, causing me to feel as if I'm back where I started.

Don’t be afraid to face the rain
It's important to confront these painful feelings head-on and not shy away from them.

′Cause it'll wash away
By facing my emotions, I'll be able to process them and let them go.

Any trace to yesterday
I'll be able to shed the painful memories of our past and start anew.

And you′ll feel ok
Through this process, I'll eventually reach a point of emotional healing and peace.

A broken heart will stop the world from spinning
Heartbreak can be all-consuming and have a profound impact on one's life and well-being.

A second chance will wait for you to start living again
There is always hope for a better future, a new opportunity to start afresh and live fully.

I'm maybe down but I ain′t out forever
Despite my current emotional struggles, I'm still hopeful for the future and believe in my ability to overcome this heartbreak.

I'm holding out for something so much better
I know that there is something better waiting for me, and I'm prepared to wait for it and work towards it.
