Men Also Cry

No one knows what it's like To be the sad man To have on sad eyes And no one knows What it's like to feel treason To be faded to telling only lies But my dreams they aren't as empty As my conscious seems to be I have hours only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what its like To feel these feelings To be mistreated To be defeated No one knows how to say That they're sorry And don't worry I'm not telling lies I'm convinced that you hate me You like to see me cry Its already a proven fact That you wait And you wait on me to die It's all a scary fact I find it hard to confide You want to be away from me I won't let go Take me down I've got a reason And I want to know The reason for the infidelity I'm convinced of your unfaithfulness So I'll wait on you tonight Please take this time For me to be unforgiving I gave my life to you I lay my life on the line for you And this is how i received my pay In disloyalty, double cross, falseness, In falsity, perfidy, sellout, treachery When Emily grows up And asks for her mother Or says how was mom like? I'll simply reply to her With these heart broken words She is abandonment, ease, lightheartedness, Naturalness, spontaneity, unrestraint But Emily please forgive your mother Once again I promise it will only make you stronger and wiser Something that your mother never was and never will
