I cry real tears
Lace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Track 4 - Time 4:25)
You ought to be ashamed of yourself
The way you talk down to me
Oh baby, didn't anybody ever teach you
To act more respectfully
I'm telling you
Don't you realize
Look my face
What do you see in my eyes
When a part of me just dies
I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears
You treat me like you think I'm made of stone
Like when I'm cut I don't bleed
Oh baby, don't you know that I'm just flesh and bone
So what do you want from me
I'm telling you
That I'm only human too
Don't you realize
Just look at my face
What do you see in my eyes
When a part of me just dies
I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears
There's something called the Golden Rule
Someday you'll wish you followed it more
You've been a fool
My love is truer than any love you will find
But I'm worth so much more and so is my time
I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears
I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears
Every little teardrop that falls from my eyes falls for you baby
You ought to be ashamed of yourself
These lyrics to Lace's song "I Cry Real Tears" are a powerful expression of pain and vulnerability in the face of mistreatment in a relationship. The singer addresses their partner directly, sharing the hurt they feel from being talked down to and not shown the respect they deserve. The phrase "I'm only human too" emphasizes the singer's desire to be treated as an equal, rather than as an object to be disregarded or manipulated. The repeated chorus of "I cry real tears" underscores the authenticity of their emotion and the depth of their pain. The closing lines suggest that the singer knows their worth and will not accept being mistreated any longer.
Overall, the lyrics convey a message of self-respect and a refusal to be treated as less than worthy of love and respect. The vulnerability expressed here is a reminder that even the strongest among us have moments of weakness, and that it is important to acknowledge and express our emotions, rather than suppressing or denying them.
