when i cry, i close my eyes
and every tear falls down inside
and i pray with all my might
that i will find my heart in someone's arms
when i cry, cry

when i cry
when i am sad, i think of every awful thing i ever did
oh when i cry, there is no love,
no there is nothing that can comfort me enough
when i cry,
cry, cry

the salt inside my body ruins everyone i come close to
my hands are barely holding up my head
i am so tired of looking at my feet
and all the secrets that i keep
my heart is barely hangin' by a thread
hangin' by a thread

oh look at me
at all i've done
i've lost so many things that i so dearly loved
i lost my soul
i lost my pride
oh i lost any hope of having a sweet life
so i cry,
cry, cry

oh the salt inside my body ruins everyone i come close to
my hands are barely holding up my head
oh i'm so tired of looking at my feet
and all the secrets that i keep
my heart is barely hangin' by a thread
hangin' by a thread

i miss you all
i wish i was with you now
i wish i was
