[Verse 1]

When my mom gets sick or I feel worthless

So much worse than I did at seventeen

Now the same angst doesn't live in me no more (Ayy)

As I'm getting older, this shit just gets harder


[Chorus]

How do I cry?

Maybe I've been sucking too much oxygen

Maybe I've been taking too much medicine

How do I cry?

Maybe no amount of carbon can help me through this


[Post-Chorus 1]

Normally crying doesn't need a handbook

But lately, I feel like I do

Normally crying doesn't need a handbook

But lately, I feel like I do

Doctor S said I should just sit and watch

Doctor S said I should take a look inside


[Verse 2]

She said you'll be surprised

At how wet it gets down there

When you're paying attention

But I'm not paying attention


[Chorus]

How do I cry?

Maybe I've been sucking too much oxygen

Maybe I've been taking too much medicine

How do I cry?

Maybe no amount of carbon can help me through this


[Post-Chorus 2]

Doctor S said I should just sit and watch

Doctor S said I should take a look inside


[Outro Spoken]

Normally crying doesn't need a handbook

But lately, I feel like I do

Normally crying doesn't need a handbook

But lately, I feel like I do
