[Verse 1]
I found you in that howling basement
Lying on the floor
You could feel the time come knocking
Knocking at your door
He'll give you something
And you'll were begging for more
You're on a crooked road to nowhere
Honey, that's for sure

[Chorus]
It's the same old feeling
You don't have to lie
Yeah it don't mean nothing
I'm gonna tell you why
Don't cry now, don't cry
Don't you cry girl
It'll be alright

[Verse 2]
Come on get up from down now
There's dirt on that floor
He's got you on the palm of his hand now
Like all this times before
You're so lost in your kingdom
Your kingdom of fear
And there's no one out there
No one's gonna appear
[Chorus]
It's the same old feeling
You don't have to lie
Yeah it don't mean nothing
I'm gonna tell you why
Don't cry now, don't cry
Don't you cry girl
It'll be alright

[Verse 3]
Remember when i found you praying
You were down on your knees
You're looking for communication
To put your mind at ease
You gotta reach out to someone
I know you'll try
You know i love you more than life itself
I just can tell you why

[Chorus]
It's the same old feeling
You don't have to lie
Yeah it don't mean nothing
I'm gonna tell you why
Don't cry now, don't cry
Don't you cry girl
You'll be alright
Don't cry now, don't cry
Don't you cry girl
It'll be alright
