I cry


I cry- by bree     

Sometimes I cry when I'm all alone.

I cry and I cry cause I am on my own.

No one, Nobody is here to save me.

"You're a big girl now, you're no longer a baby."

I cry like a newborn.

I cry cause my heart is torn. 

If someone would listen and give me a chance. 

Maybe I wouldn't cry if I had a true friend.

But who do you know that's real and that's true?

Which one of your friends would stop and help you?

I cry . I cry. And not for your pity.

I cry cause I'm a country girl livin' in the city.

The world moves fast.

Like a car on the dash.

The windowsill cries with me.

I want to scream. I want to be free. 

I cry.

and no one cares about why.
