Crying
Speedstar* Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've seen it al before, but I'm not cynical
No I'm not anything at all
The bluest eyes I've seen are slowly reddening
And it hurts me to think

Cause I'm a man who just can't stand to see you crying for yourself

I listen to my heart, it's incredible
If it makes sense at all
the coolest eyes I've seen are slowly melting
And it hurts me to sleep

Cause I'm a man who just can't stand to see you crying for yourself

Can I make you smile?
Is that ok?
Just don't waste your tears on me
If I make you smile is that ok?
Cause I'm a man who just can't stand to see you crying

I'm a man who just can't stand to see you crying for yourself




I'm a man
I'm a man

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Crying" talk about a man who is witnessing someone he cares about crying and hurting. He mentions that he's seen it all before, possibly referring to past experiences of seeing people in pain. However, he says that he's not cynical, indicating that he still has hope despite what he's seen. He talks about the person's eyes, highlighting their beauty before slowly reddening or melting due to tears. He mentions that it hurts him to see someone he cares about in pain and crying, and he's a man who just can't stand it.


He then talks about listening to his heart, which he finds incredible, but it's unclear what he's referring to specifically. He talks again about the person's eyes melting and how it hurts him to sleep. He then asks if he can make the person smile, and if it's okay. He doesn't want the person to waste their tears on him, indicating that he wants to help and provide comfort. He repeats once again that he can't stand seeing the person crying.

Women, children need their fathers.
Nobody knows what the next person is going through. What people portray on social media is manufactured by the individual. Not everything is as seems. If there's one thing we can learn from this, it's that we've got to be more open with each other. We've got to. Lest we find, God forbid, someone in our circles pushed to the edge the way Riky was.

As real as Ricky's love was displayed, was whatever wasn't...... this isn't a murder case its suicide.... Let us at least not make a war over his late decisions.... rather take up what he stood for and strive to change the industry with authentic care for the future with present engagement.... RIP Rick

He must explain what did the kids do wrong. Ricky had his own problems, and everybody failed to recognize that he was suffering inside. He did say that he was suffering from depression but even when MacG asked about it, he never wanted to go deep. I also watched other old videos, even there he never wanted to go deep. Maybe he knew no one will ever understand unless if its one who have suffered from it. Most of the celebs are saying he was a good friend to him, some are even saying they use to talk to him regularly on the phone, or before they sleep but no one could help him. Maybe he had nobody he could trust to really talk about it as people normally tell one's problems to everybody. Maybe he thought he was handling it well by himself. I watched an interview when he said it's started when his dad passed away after one year they re-connected . Though maybe there are other things that accumulated inside. We will never know. So blaming kids while even the adults couldn't help, it's not good unless if this guy have information we dont have. Sometimes It's pain that make us always want to blame someone for death of people we love, even if sometimes, it's just life. Rest peacefully Ricky, we loved you💐.This guy must stop bullying kids.
