Tears
M.E.N. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Running
Running through my head
The smell of your perfume
Sitting
Sitting in my chest
But where do we go when we don't got nothing left to give
I don't see no change
There will be no change
Ohhh
I love you
But you love to take me down
I need
But your need to put me down
Breaks my heart
Oh on oh
It breaks my heart
Ohhh
I love you
Does the good out weigh the bad?
I need you
You're the best I've ever had
It's Breaks my heart
Oh oh oh
Breaks my heart
I remember, early December
I was your chosen one (Chosen one)
We were together
Seemed like forever
Now a memory you've become
Now I can't fight my tears no more
And I can't have your picture on the wall
It might be soon but I can't fake no more
Oh my god how you crushed my soul
All the time that you spent here, wasted
All my flaws that I thought you accepted
Gave it all that's all I wanted
For you
Ohhh
I love you
But you love to take me down
I need
But your need to put me down
Breaks my heart
Oh on oh
It breaks my heart
Ohhh
I love you
Does the good out weigh the bad?
I need you
You're the best I've ever had
It's Breaks my heart
Oh oh oh
Breaks my heart
The lyrics of M.E.N.'s song Tears is a heart-wrenching reflection of someone's pain and regret after a break-up. The first stanza talks about the feelings of nostalgia that the singer experiences, thinking about the things they used to do with their loved one. The line "But it's no use in going back through the years" shows that they understand that they cannot go back in time and undo whatever might have led to the break-up, and all they are left with is the sadness that comes with it.
The second stanza talks about how the singer keeps seeing their loved one's smiling face everywhere they go. This is a classic symptom of heartbreak, where even the most mundane things can trigger painful memories. At home, they are left with an empty space, with nothing to hold on to but the memories of what they shared. They lament the time they wasted and how they thought their partner cared, only to be left with a life that holds nothing but tears.
The third stanza is a plea to their loved one to come back, with an assurance to leave the past behind and help them overcome their doubts and fears. However, the singer has accepted that even if their heart is breaking, they wish the loved one finds happiness and the love they both dreamed of.
Overall, the lyrics of Tears are a poignant representation of the pain of a heartbreak and the acceptance that sometimes things are not meant to be.

Just before the sun is ready to say goodnight
As evening approaches, I reflect on our past memories
And the moon comes out of hiding to share its light
The moon reminds me of our love that once shone bright
I think about the things we used to do
I reminisce on the experiences we shared as two
The way you held me when our love was new
I recall the feeling of your arms that once held me true
But it's no use in going back through the years
However, dwelling on the past will only yield tears
There's nothing left for me but tears, tears, tears, tears
My heartache cannot be undone, and all that remains is an endless deluge of tears
Everywhere I go it seems I see your smiling face (smiling face)
Each place reminds me of your happy expression that can't be erased
But when I get home there's nothing but empty space
Yet, returning to our empty home mimics the emptiness of my heart's space
That single cigarette we used to share
The cigarette from the past is a symbol of what seemed fair
The time we wasted when I thought you cared
Time spent with you, when I thought you were invested, now seems like an error
How can I face this life without you near
As I try to move on, living without you still fills me with fear
A life that only holds tears, tears, tears, tears
My future is bleak, with only tears as the defining years
Who'd ever thought we would be going, going our separate ways
We didn't foretell this ending, as we planned to be together always
We promised love forever but where, oh, where is love today (love today)
Our vow of eternal love is now but a memory, so where has that love gone away
Darling if you'd ever change your mind
On the off chance that you reconsider our time
Come back and we will leave the past behind
We can begin anew and leave our sorrowful past far behind
I'll wipe away your doubt, dispel all your fears
I promise to alleviate your worries and calm your tears
But please don't leave me here with tears, tears, tears, tears
Yet, please don't abandon me with a sorrowful existence and the continuing pain of tears
But even though my heart is breaking I wish you love
Despite my unbearable pain, I hope you find all the love you deserve
May you find the happiness that we both dreamed of
I pray that your future holds the happiness we both envisioned with love

I like Brian’s comedy. My father showed me his comedy, like his father before him

How fucking young was your father when he had you for your grandfather to know about Bryan Callen’s comedy 😅

Wrinks killed it with this special. 92 years old and still full of life and so much energy.
Ed
This special is fantastic! So happy to see his star rise in the last few years of his life. Callen had so much energy for a senior citizen. A true elder statesmen. Soon, you will be missed.

I started reading this comment thinking wow finally a comment not talking about his age and then it went downhill from from there

Back when the wheel was invented in Lower Mesopotamia, Bryan Callen was watching a pride of Lions take down a gazelle and his first animal joke popped into his head. He's been refining that animal based material ever since and this special is the culmination of that 6,000 years of refinement. As you can imagine, after all that work it is BLOODY FANTASTIC..
