Crying Out Loud

I lay in my bed thinking of those three little words.
thoughts on my mind about the old us.
my head lost on your lips, the way you moved those hips, your perfect kiss.
if I found a well, if I had one last chance, I change it all, I'd wish I wasn't hanging from this cord.

I'm crying outloud.
whimpering then sobbing.
into my pillow again.
trying my hardest to forget my sins.

crying out loud.
crying out loud.
leave me alone.
I don't need you anyways.
I'll just keep crying out loud.

if I had a time machine, if I could go back.
I'd reverse to a time before my mistake.
the cheating, the lies, the way I rolled those dye.
made me realize what I had, what I lacked, what was to late to take back.
so I lay here, tears streaming, broken memories of you leaving.

I'm stuck in the present.
living this lie.
I try and I try to get by.
then the thoughts of you misspell your name.
and I return to myself: insane.

but tonight, I'll cry out my pain.
let my pillow be my drain.
drizzle out all the rage.
as I remain locked in this soulless cage.

I'm crying out loud.
trying not to make a sound.
cry, cry, cry, till I fall asleep.
where I dream of you.
till I scream about you.

awake once more.
I'm fake once more.
no smiles, all frowns.
tripping on my mindset.
sights of romantic leave me frantic.

and I'm back to -

crying at home.
in my room.
cry, cry, cry.
cry - ing, cry, cry - ing out loud (out loud)
