Cry Lyrics
[RACHEL]
If anyone asks
I'll tell them we both just moved on
When people all stare
I'll pretend that I don't hear them talk
Whenever I see you
I'll swallow my pride
And bite my tongue
Pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong
Is it over yet?
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?
Cry!
If anyone asks
I'll tell them we just grew apart (Tell them we just grew apart)
And what do I care
If they believe me or not (They believe me or not)
Whenever I feel
Your memory is breaking my heart
I'll pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong
If anyone asks
I'll tell them we both just moved on
When people all stare
I'll pretend that I don't hear them talk
Whenever I see you
I'll swallow my pride
And bite my tongue
Pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong
Is it over yet?
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?
Cry!
If anyone asks
I'll tell them we just grew apart (Tell them we just grew apart)
And what do I care
If they believe me or not (They believe me or not)
Whenever I feel
Your memory is breaking my heart
I'll pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong
Is it over yet?
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?
Cry!
I'm talking in circles
I'm lying, they know it
Why won't this just all go...
...Away!
Is it over yet?
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?
Cry!
Cry!
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?
Cry!
I'm talking in circles
I'm lying, they know it
Why won't this just all go...
...Away!
Is it over yet?
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?
Cry!
Cry!
