[Verse 1]
If I ever told you why
Losing is a safe high
Falling from a new height
Wasting by the wayside
Poof and now the world's gone
This is not a love song
These aren't tears of mine
[Verse 2]
I'm tired of the taste
Praying hard in the cold
Spend nights wearing thin
Felt silence
I'm tired of the days
They came and went
We were left alone
Fighting hard to breathe
[Chorus]
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
[Verse 3]
Eyes covered, took your word
The light dies each time I lose sight
Couldn't take the shame each night
Eyes covered, took your word
The light dies each time I lose sight
Couldn't take the pain each night
[Verse 4]
You just line me up
What was left unsaid
Quiet's all you had
The future's unfair
If we listen close
We're running out of time
You don't seem to mind
The future sounds fun
The future sounds fun
[Chorus]
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
[Pre-Chorus]
If you wanna live
Closer to pretend
Closer to the end
You never seem to know
Tears are running out
Crying a lot
If I were to die
I'd never sing too loud
[Chorus]
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry no more
Don't you cry
Don't you cry, no
Don't you cry, no
Don't you cry no more
Don't you cry

An October 2020 DIY Mag article quotes MorMor saying:
I had started to write again in December with a few songs underway, but in March the world as we knew it came to a halt. Though I tried to continue writing it didn’t feel right. I was told I was being hard on myself, but I have always used music...
This was one the first l songs I made after lockdown began. I had all this music that I felt was irrelevant to my current condition. I was kind of toying with this song, and my mom encouraged me actually to write it. Even though there are elements -like the drums-that work in the realm of stuff I’ve...
