SHOKO stands up for herself in a ‘better off without you’ scenario. Her mix of diva pop and Persian sensuality comes together perfectly on this track, that is more of a dancing tune than pity party.
[Verse 1]
Lying with you I don't know where to stand
I'm really feeling something
But you leave me hanging like it's nothing
Waiting on a message you don't send
Got me overthinking
Are we hooking up or are we endin'?
[Pre Chorus]
We're just waiting for the weekend
So we can get happy again
Waiting for something more
But yeah no matter what
[Chorus]
I don't miss no party
I ain't staying home all night
Don't need anybody
Girl fly
Girls don't cry
This ain't gonna break me
Baby i'mma fix up fine
Don't need anybody
Girl fly
Girls don't cry
[After Chorus]
I sure don't cry
No girls don't cry
X4
[Verse 2]
With your arms around me like before
I can take whatever
Ain't coming down when we're together
But I don't want this feeling anymore
If you ain't going all in, I can't be falling
Cause that shit gets real boring
[Pre Chorus]
We're just waiting for the weekend
So we can get happy again
Waiting for something more
But yeah no matter what
[Chorus]
I don't miss no party
I ain't staying home all night
Don't need anybody
Girl fly
Girls don't cry
This ain't gonna break me
Baby i'mma fix up fine
Don't need anybody
Girl fly
Girls don't cry
[After Chorus]
I sure don't cry
No girls don't cry
X4
[Outro]
(I sure don't, I sure don't, I sure don't, I sure don't)
I sure don't cry
No girls don't cry
