Cry, Baby, Cry

So today I finally cried
I faded into the background
Like elevator music
Except sadder, a little bit darker

Today I finally broke
I shattered into pieces
Like a mirror
Except blacker, a little deeper

Once in a while
It's too hard to breathe
Cry, baby, cry
It'll make it all better
The wind whispers in my ear
"I'll save you, I promise"
But the promise is always
Broken

Today I finally cracked
I ripped from the inside out
Like an egg
Except more fragile, a little less alive

Today I wept
I sobbed for the past
Like a child
Except less innocent, more exposed

Once in a while
It's too hard to breathe
Cry, baby, cry
It'll make it all better
The wind whispers in my ear
"I'll save you, I promise"
But it's always broken

Once in a while
I forget to breathe
I gotta cry, baby, cry
To just make it all better
The wind whispers to me
"I can save you, I promise"
But it was broken
