Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Spin the sunset story
Sell me some excuse
To help me understand the things you do
[Verse 2]
'Cause the way you treat your lovers
Well, I just can't relate
Well, where'd you learn to shoot your gun so straight?
[Verse 3]
Oh, baby, won't you cry?
Show me there's some tears behind your eyes
Oh, baby, won't you cry?
Show me there's a hug behind your eyes
[Verse 4]
Once you had a reason
And once you had a place
You had it all and laid it all to waste
[Verse 5]
And I know you hate to need us
But why do you need to hate?
And where'd you learn to shoot without restraint?
[Verse 6]
Oh, baby, won't you cry?
You cut yourself, so let me see you bleed
Oh, baby, won't you cry?
Cries for all the things you'll never be
[Verse 7]
Don't you see your father?
Don't you feel the love?
Don't you see your brother?
Don't you feel the love?
Well, could you be a mother?
Could you ever find the love
That you would not place yourself above?
[Verse 8]
Oh, baby, won't you cry?
Show me there's some tears behind your eyes
Oh, baby, won't you cry?
Why'd you have to kill to feel alive?
[Verse 9]
Why'd you have to kill to feel alive?
Why'd you have to kill to feel alive?
