Cry for Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
'Cause I don't want to fuck you up
Okay, a little bit, yeah, I admit, but not too much
Tell me, was I not enough?
I felt you checking out, I heard the doubt when you said, "Love"
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't really care, just lie
I know it's gonna hurt, but try
[Chorus]
I want you to cry for me
Cry just a little, please, cry for me so I know you care
I want you to fight for me
Fight a little bit harder, oh, fight for me so I know you care
I want you to die just a little inside every time I leave
I want you to taste just a bit of the pain that you gave to me
So come on now, cry, baby
Lie to me, baby, please cry for me so I know you care
[Verse 2]
Maybe I'm the broken one
'Cause you feel nothing anymore, but I am overcome
I just wanna see those tears
So can't you give me something in return for all these years?
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't really care, just lie
I know it's gonna hurt, but try
[Chorus]
I want you to cry for me
Cry just a little, please, cry for me so I know you care
I want you to fight for me
Fight a little bit harder, oh, fight for me so I know you care
I want you to die just a little inside every time I leave (Every time I leave)
I want you to taste just a bit of the pain that you gave to me (To me)
So come on now, cry, baby
Lie to me, baby, please cry for me so I know you care
[Bridge]
And I'm the worst
'Cause I choose my words
To always hit you where it hurts
Empathise
Yeah, come on and cry now
It's only pain, baby, you won’t die
[Chorus]
So come on now, cry for me
Cry just a little, please, cry for me so I know you care
I want you to fight for me
Fight a little bit harder, oh, fight for me so I know you care
I want you to die just a little inside every time I leave
I want you to taste just a bit of the pain that you gave to me
So come on now, cry, baby
Lie to me, baby, please cry for me so I know you care
[Outro]
I want you to die just a little inside every time I leave
I want you to taste just a bit of the pain that you gave to me, baby
I want you to die just a little inside every time I leave
I want you to taste just a bit of the pain that you gave to me
