It's so hard to fell alone with no one there to hold
And the world you know comes crashing down right before your eyes
You keep it all inside but still you can't decide
If you should blame yourself or everyone else, but you're just tryin' to survive
When there's nothing left to lose
If I had to choose I'd say
If you're strong enough to cry
And you need someone to be there for you
Let go of all your pride
Just cry, Just cry
When it seems so far away and you're waiting on a change
And you feel like no one listens to a single word you say
You've been searching for the words, but your silence can't be heard
And you say that you'll be fine, but you've had better days
When there's nothing left to lose
If I had to choose I'd say
If you're strong enough to cry
And you need someone to be there for you
Let go of all your pride
Just cry, Just cry, Just cry
If you're strong enough to cry
And you need someone to be there for you
Let go of all your pride
Just cry, Just cry
