Cry To Me

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Practice to hit the ball
Oh I don't know what to write to make them like us
It takes years of try hard work
No skipping to the first
Oh you have to know just what you have signed up for
And if they say that we can't I'll show them that we can
When they scream and shout oh all we'll do is watch
We'll never break no matter what they try
I'll never ever ever let you see me cry
Never ever ever let you see me cry
No one said that it'd be easy
And now I feel like cheating
But as long as we're together we'll be fine
'Cause we're somewhere in between
Not at the beginning
But far from what I know we could become
And if they say that we can't I'll show them that we can
When they scream and shout oh all we'll do is watch
However hard it gets I can take a little sweat
No matter what they try
I'll never ever ever let you see me cry
If they tear me down with their knife sharp words
If they trample all my splendid work
If they show me failure in front of my eyes
I'll never let you see me cry
No fixing is needed when nothing is broken
Your love is enough it's my ticket my token
Who cares if they say that we'll never make it
Oh we're in control of our own destination
If they beat me down and leave me dry
If they expose my deepest crimes
If they terrorize or get close to you
Oh I'd fight a thousand fights
I'd sacrifice my life
I'd walk through every fire
But you'd never ever ever see me ever cry

But you'd never ever ever see me ever cry
Ensuring that one's emotional vulnerability remains hidden and concealed
