"Boys Do Cry" lyrics

I get a text at 3 AM saying you can't sleep again, am I awake?
But I know that's just a lie, you're probably out your mind with all your mates
So I try to close my eyes, but I'm blinded by the light 'cause you keep calling
So I answer and say, mate, what d'you want, it's proper late? Can't it wait until the mornin'?

You say I'm sorry if I woke you up, but I've been overthinking lately
And maybe you could save me from myself tonight
I need help tonight 'cause no one understands me
All my friends and family say I'll be alright
Boys don't cry, but I've been cryin' lately
So maybe you could save me from myself tonight

We're in your flat at half-past 3, drinkin' cups of tea on the kitchen floor
You say you feel ashamed 'cause you've never had to explain the way you feel before
'Cause you can't afford the therapy, so you're scared that this is gonna be forever
But you're not alone, mate, that's the truth, things can change, I'm livin' proof that it gets better

So don't be sorry that you woke me up
'Cause maybe I'm the mate who
Could be the one to save you from yourself again
When you need help, my friend
Society demands you man up, I know it's hard to
But don't comply, boys do cry
And when you're too afraid to
I'll be the one to save you from yourself tonight

'Cause boys do cry
Boys do cry (I'll be the one to save you from yourself)
Boys do cry (And when you're too afraid to, I'll be the one to save you)
Boys do cry
