Cry - Thornetta Davis

Put me in the ground

Dry my eyes

Cover me with me your empty words

Turn and walk away

Another mother cries

For another lost child

Nothing reveals the games you play

Turn and walk away

I try to wipe my eyes

And push away the pain

I try to lie still

Through the same old game

This emptiness inside

Is driving me insane

This feeling I can’t hide

I hope you feel the same

I wonder if you cry at midnight

And does your heart feel the pain

Cry if you want, cry if you will

I wanted you to feel this way

Does anyone cry for a killer

When he’s viewed as a saint

Fill my ears with what I need to hear

Close my eyes and you’ll disappear

I’m like an insect in amber

I’m frozen in time

Will I fall into tomorrow

Will I make it through tonight?

I wonder if you cry at midnight

Does your heart feel the pain

Cry if you want, cry if you will

I wanted you to feel this way
