Cry a River lyrics

Turn off the lights and close your eyes and tell me what you see

I’ll bet it doesn’t have a goddamn thing to do with me

There’s nothing left to say

I finally know the truth about you

You come alive you played it well I was the last to know

My premonition was the only thing that let it show

I gave you everything

But I could never pacify you

So go on and cry me a river

Don’t say this will haunt you forever

It never did it never will

Tear it away I wanna see just what you really are

And rip the veil that hides that wretched soul you call a heart

This is my agony

But I return to stay beside you

So go on and cry me a river

Don’t say this will haunt you forever

It never did it never will

Vows are not meant to be broken

You never cared for a moment

You never did you never will

Now I know the truth about you

All you need I will deny you

So go on and cry me a river

Don’t say this will haunt you forever

It never did it never will

All that you see you devour

The money the greed and the power

You always did you always will

Now I know the truth about you

All you need I will deny you
