[Verse 1]

We shout, I cry

You pace, you stay

But you don't cry like me

I kick, I scream

We're building our dreams

But is your love so deep?

[Pre-Chorus]

It was never a crime

To show me that you care

[Chorus]

Why don't you cry like me?

Why don't you shed a tear?

I'm hurting, you should be

Why don't you cry like me?

It's okay to, my dear

Won't you just cry like me?

[Verse 2]

You break my walls

I trip, but you don't fall

Why don't you hurt like me?

We draw our swords

We fight for more

But is it me you need?

[Pre-Chorus]

It was never a crime

To show me that you care

[Chorus]

Why don't you cry like me?

Why don't you shed a tear?

I'm hurting, you should be

Why don't you cry like me?

It's okay to, my dear

Won't you just cry like me?

[Refrain]

Show me that you care

That you care for me, care for me

Show me that you care

That you care for me, care for me

[Bridge]

It's funny how the seasons change

With every turn, I feel you slipping further away

I know there's something left to save

But I can't find it in your eyes

Are you lost or trying to be brave?

Why don't you just cry like me?

Why don't you just cry like me and get it out?

[Chorus]

Why don't you cry like me?

Why don't you shed a tear?

I'm hurting, you should be

Why don't you cry like me?

It's okay to, my dear

Won't you just cry like me?

[Refrain]

Show me that you care

That you care for me, care for me

Show me that you care

Do you care for me, care for me?

[Outro]

Why don't you cry like me?

Why don't you just cry like me?
