"Cry Me A River" lyrics

Cry me a river
Fill it up with regrets
The secrets you kept
It's what you do best, huh?
Let the water rise
Til I drown in your lies
When you cry me a river
The life that we built
Take it out with your guilt
Oh well, oh well
Maybe I'll put up a fight
And make a boat of your pride
Try to make it through the night
Cry me a river

I'll drink it down like liquor
Sip it all day long
Til it's a poison in my liver
Slow killer
Finger on the trigger
Could you send a rogue tsunami?
Maybe then it might be quicker
Might break my heart just a little
But all these scars have made it bitter
The bridges we've built out of splinters
Throw some gas and light a match
And burn 'em 'til they're cinders

Smother it out with your apology
Play with my mind with your twisted psychology
Gimme a line from sadistic ideologies
Then cry me

Cry me a river
Fill it up regrets
The secrets you kept
It's what you do best, huh?
Let the water rise
'Til I drown in your lies
When you cry me a river
The life that we built
Take it out with your guilt
Oh well, oh well
Maybe I'll put up a fight
And make a boat of your pride
Try to make it through the night

Cry me a river
Cry
Cry me a river

I can hear sirens
I feel the winds change
Take cover, take shelter
They're calling for rain
I can hear sirens
I feel the winds change
Send me a hurricane

I can hear sirens
I feel the winds change
Take cover, take shelter
They're calling for rain
I can hear sirens
I feel the winds change
Send me a hurricane, no

Cry me a river
Fill it up regrets
The secrets you kept
It's what you do best, huh?
Let the water rise
Til I drown in your lies
When you cry me a river
The life that we built
Take it out with your guilt
Oh well, oh well
Maybe I'll put up a fight
And make a boat of your pride
Try to make it through the night

Cry me a river (Cry, cry, cry)
(It's what you do best) (Cry, cry, cry)
(Oh, oh, oh) (Cry, cry, cry)
(It's what you do best) (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry)
