Cry Baby

Baby, Baby, I won't be blue
Cause you can't bring me down
So I'm coming over to sing you a lullaby
and
I won't cry , I won't cry, no I don't cry

I know just what to do
Playing you and you're playing me
Sweet music all night long
and when morning comes
I'll go
and
I won't cry, I won't cry, I don't cry

(Musical break)

The rhythm is mine and the time
Don't tell me you know the words when you haven't heard my rhyme
No regrets will cloud  my mind

I won't cry, I won't cry, I don't cry

Baby, baby, I just can't be blue
No, not because of you
So, I'll go and sing a lullaby to myself

Lied to

I fell in love
with a lie once
A lie that lay me down
It was just a sweet little girl
in love with a mean old boy once
And I wonder
if you were always untrue
Did I loose you
or were you always
someone else?
Now I'm questioning myself
Because my heart it feels it
Shouldn't I have known better?

Now I do
I think I do
Maybe I do

It was just a sweet little girl
in love with a mean old boy once
And I wonder
if you were always untrue
Did I loose you
or were you always
someone else?
Now I'm questioning myself
Shouldn't I have knwn better?

I fell in love with a lie once
A lie that lay me down

I Let You See

I let you see what
I want to see but
You don't know me now
You don't know me no

I let you hold me but
You never told me what
I wanted you to say
I needed you to say

I refuse to be in your reality
You didn't bring me out
You reminded me

I will fight against your philosophy
You didn't bring me out
You reminded me

I will learn to be
by myself be free
I don't need you now
I don't need anyone

Everything you know is
Not all you need to know this
Openness brings joy with pain

You're closed off to
different points of view

With your articulation
Comes manipulation
of yourself

I refuse to be in your reality
You didn't bring me out
You reminded me

I will fight against your philosophy
You didn't bring me out
You reminded me
