I swallow my pride
To get on the right side of you
I keep on smiling darling
I look on the bright side for you
Ooh yes I do
I tangle my life
To stay on the nice side of you
I say what you wanna hear
I'm always so good for you
You know it's true
But I cry
Ooh I cry
I cry
But I cry
Ooh you used to bring me joy girl
But now I'm just pretending
And faking is all I really ever do
Cause I know
It's ending
Ooh yes I do
But I still try to be perfect everyday in every way
Just like you want me to
Ooh ooh ooh
And I'm holding it together
Just as much as I can
Ooh I am
But I cry
Ooh I cry
I cry
But I cry
You don't even notice
When I'm lying to you
You never look into my eyes anymore
But don't misunderstand me
Or look so disappointed
Cause I ain't pretending like before
But I cry
Ooh I cry
I cry
But I cry
But I cry
Ooh I cry
I cry
But I cry
