Cry Lyrics by Benson Boone

Fireworks & Rollerblades

2024

[Intro]
I tried to hide it through the silence while I played along
I'm welling up behind my eyelids when I'm holding on
To the rage, so badly I hate him
And I wish that all of—
Nah, nah, nah, that doesn't feel right
Maybe, uh, speed it up
Yeah, that's nice

[Verse 1]
I really hate the way you think that you can get away

Cry, cry
Go bug somebody else so I can sleep at night

[Bridge]
Cry, cry
Go ahead and ruin someone else's life
Cry, cry
And I'm tired of letting someone get the best of me, so go ahead and

[Outro]
Cry, cry
Go ahead and ruin someone else's—
