I listened to the whine for way too long
Time for me to hear a different song
ch /ch
I waited overtime for things to turn around
Tired of waiting for it all to hit the ground
You said you knew all about it
What was right and what was wrong
ch /ch
You pulled the world over the eyes of everyone
ch /ch
Maybe I was weak when I should've been strong
Cry baby cry
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
Cry baby cry
break
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
You took me by surprise and like a shot in the dark (shot in the dark)
You showed yourself in your truest light (truest light)
ch /ch
You saved yourself by saving nobody else
ch /ch
You must have cringed when you heard them tell
Cry baby cry
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
Cry baby cry
break
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
You took the wrong turn at the city of dreams (city of dreams)
You ended up back where you came from it seems (came from it seems)
Back there to where there's nothing else to do
ch /ch
Back there where you can sit and think of only you
Cry baby cry
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
Cry baby cry
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
Cry-y-y
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
Cry-y-y
break
Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
freely
Your lonesome lullabye
