[Chorus:]
Why can't I cry when I need to?
Why aren't you here when I want you?
Came back and pulled up
Wanna ask are we through?
Why can't I cry about you?
God, why can't I cry when I need to?

[Verse:]
I'm selfish
I know you know you know I thought you'd help this
Maybe I'm not in your best interests
We might be just a little different
Well, if you can see the difference
Man, I get a little jealous
Hate that makes me look desperate

[Bridge:]
Can't you see I've been clingy?
And you realize I'm so needy?
I hate its hard to let go easy
You didn't want me
Could've let me fly freely
Why you didn't the chance to see me?

[Chorus:]
Why can't I cry when I need to?
Why aren't you here when I want you?
Came back and pulled up
Wanna ask are we through?
Why can't I cry about you?
God, why can't I cry when I need to?

[Outro:]
I know I got hurt in my eyes
Too low to get to my highs
Sick of all your lies
