Lyric

You seem to replace your brain with your heart

You take things so hard, and then you fall apart

You try to explain, but before you can start

Those cry baby tears come out of the dark

Someone's turning the handle to that faucet in your eyes

You pour it out where everyone can see

Your heart's too big for your body, it's why it won't fit inside

You pour it out where everyone can see

They call you cry baby, cry baby

But you don't fucking care

Cry baby, cry baby

So you laugh through your tears

Cry baby, cry baby

'Cause you don't fucking care

Tears fall to the ground

You'll just let them drown

You'll just let them drown

Cry baby, cry baby

You're all on your own, and you lost all your friends

You told yourself that it's not you, it's them

You're one of a kind, and no one understands

But those cry baby tears keep coming back again

Someone's turning the handle to that faucet in your eyes

You pour it out where everyone can see

Your heart's too big for your body, it's why it won't fit inside

You pour it out where everyone can see

They call you cry baby, cry baby

But you don't fucking care

Cry baby, cry baby

So you laugh through your tears

Cry baby, cry baby

'Cause you don't fucking care

Tears fall to the ground

You'll just let them drown

Cry baby, cry baby

You'll just let them drown

Cry baby, cry baby

You'll just let them drown

I look at you, and I see myself

And I know you better than anyone else

And I have the same faucet in my eyes

So your tears are mine

They call me cry baby, cry baby

But I don't fucking care

Cry baby, cry baby

I laugh through my tears

Cry baby, cry baby

'Cause I don't fucking care

Tears fall to the ground

I just let them drown

Cry baby, cry baby

I just let them drown

Cry baby, cry baby

You'll just let them drown

They call you cry baby, cry baby

I just let them drown

Cry baby, cry baby

You'll just let them drown
