Cry Baby Cry

[Verse 1]
You were tracing shapes on the back of my hand
Talking like a prophet in a weekend band
Saying you’re over it
Over the scene
Still saving every wristband
Every receipt
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’re fine
You say you’re fine
Then your voice cracks halfway through the line
[Chorus]
Cry
Baby
Cry
If it hurts
Let it hurt tonight
You always laugh it off
Say you’re alright
But your eyes give you away every time
Cry
Baby
Cry
I’m not walking out this time
Let it flood
Let it sting
Let it bite
Cry
Baby
Cry
[Verse 2]
You hate all your photos
You hate your own name
Blame it on the weather
Blame it on fate
You keep every secret pinned in your room
Tiny little storm maps taped to the moon
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’re fine
You say you’re fine
Then you tremble when your fingers meet mine
[Chorus]
Cry
Baby
Cry
If it hurts
Let it hurt tonight
You always laugh it off
Say you’re alright
But your eyes give you away every time
Cry
Baby
Cry
I’m not walking out this time
Let it flood
Let it sting
Let it bite
Cry
Baby
Cry
[Bridge]
You don’t have to be the strong one
You don’t have to be the joke
Let it shake you
Let it break you
I’m still here in the smoke (oh)
If the past comes like a siren
Ringing through your fragile pride
Turn it up
Let it wail
I’m on your side
[Chorus]
Cry
Baby
Cry
If it hurts
Let it hurt tonight
You always laugh it off
Say you’re alright
But your eyes give you away every time
Cry
Baby
Cry
Every scar
Every crooked line
Let it flood
Let it sting
Let it bite
Cry
Baby
Cry

rock, Indie rock meets glossy new wave: chiming, reverb-soaked guitars over a tight, driving bass and snappy drums. Male vocals with a cool, detached verse delivery that swells into an anthemic, shout-along chorus. Subtle synth pads widen the hook; gang vocals and extra guitar layers lift the final repeat for a cathartic, arms-in-the-air finish., new wave, male vocals, indie rock
