Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Shout out from the bottom of my lungs
A plague on both your houses
This thing, it's a family affair
It's drawin' out my weakness
[Verse 2]
Big boys don't cry
They don't ask why
[Verse 3]
There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn't ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
'Cause everythin' will change tonight
[Verse 4]
I want to be back on the ground
Where my feet touch my shadow
I want to dig my heels in the dirt
Feel it break between all of my toes
[Verse 5]
Anything to stop floatin' round, bring me down
Back down below, oh, oh, oh, oh
Take breath and push the anger down
Try to remember calmness
[Verse 6]
Big boys don't cry
They don't ask why
[Verse 7]
There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn't ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
'Cause everythin' will change tonight
[Verse 8]
Hey now, what's the gravity upon your face?
So I'm the one who's bleedin'
Real men always thinkin' with our fists
My turn to be the victim
[Verse 9]
Big boys don't cry
They don't ask why
[Verse 10]
There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn't ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
'Cause everythin' will change tonight
[Verse 11]
There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn't ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
'Cause everythin' will change tonight
