Cry
Marlango Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someone should cry
Give a step back
Come along and not wait or
Pull, try
Fold every past
Walk every path

Someone could stop
Save what's left of me
Defend my sky, smile
Try every taste
Drawn every shape
And cry

Someone could stare
Count the stars
Treasure the stones that wait
On the beach, care
Burn every ash
Know every word
And cry

Someone could rock me
Cradle all of my fears in their arms, know all
The words, smile at dogs lost in the night




Somebody please care
And cry

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Marlango's song "Cry" are a plea for someone to care for and love the singer. The first stanza suggests that the singer needs someone to cry for them and to give them support. The lines "give a step back" and "fold every past" could imply that the singer is asking for someone to help them move on from their past and to not let it affect them anymore. The second stanza furthers this idea, with the singer wanting someone to "save what's left of me" and to "defend my sky." These lines suggest that the singer feels broken and needs someone to help them find their way back to happiness.


The third stanza takes a slightly different turn, with the singer asking for someone to "stare / count the stars" and to "treasure the stones that wait / on the beach." These lines conjure images of someone appreciating the beauty of the world around them and finding joy in simple things. The fourth and final stanza returns to the theme of needing someone to care for the singer. The lines "cradle all of my fears in their arms, know all / the words, smile at dogs lost in the night" paint a picture of someone who knows the singer intimately and is able to comfort them. The final line of the song repeats the earlier plea: "somebody please care / and cry."


Overall, "Cry" is a song about the universal need for love and support. The lyrics express a desire for someone to truly see and appreciate the singer, to help them let go of past hurts, and to comfort them when they're afraid. It's a powerful and emotional message that is likely to resonate with many listeners.
