Why I Cry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look to the future, nothing's there
Don't know why I even care
Walk around in a haze
Seems to be the way I spend my days
I'm stuck in the grey

Turn around and no one's there
Don't know why I even care
Moods, they swing, the seasons change
Is it you or am I to blame, I always complain

[Chorus]
'Cause you seem to think you know everything
Yeah, you seem to think you know everything
But you don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry

[Verse 2]
Before I can stay inside, Oh, how fast the time goes by
Take a pill, spend the bills
Seems to be the way I get my thrill
A never-ending hill
[Chorus]
'Cause you seem to think you know everything
Yeah, you seem to think you know everything
But you don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry

You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
Why I cry

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
