We Cry

My spoof of the awesome song "We Cry" by The Script. Hope you like it!

We Cry

Together we cry

Together we cry

Still waiting for that true girl

Still stuck in my own world

Wanted to be the best thing the world has ever seen

I've been dreaming of a better world

For me and my girl

But the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree

When I get their call it's just too late

I've missed the bus again

One too many times

Together we cry

What about the junk head

Could have gone the whole way

Chasing after dreams of his missing dears

Now he's lighting up the wrong way

Something for the pain

Man can his life get more f***king unreal

When he gets their call he's too far gone

To get together and sing one song

But would we even care tonight

For the words of a lullaby

Together we cry

Together we cry

Together we cry

Oh we cry, we cry, we cry

Together we cry

Oh we cry, we cry

Oh

Mary's so ambitious

She wanna be a politician

She been dreaming about it since she was a girl

She thought she'd be the one to change the world

Always trying to pave the way for women in a man's world

But life sucks, house, kids, bills now

Husband gets the sack, cheques that don't go very far now

Now she in it, she can't change it, she keeps her mind on her wages

The only rattling cages are her own

Together we cry

Together we cry

There's so much sad gonna flood the ocean

But nothing to do to mend the world that's broken

Together we cry

There comes a time that every faith has to fly

At some point every hope has to die

It's hard to let your children go, leave home

Where they go, God knows, 

Getting drunk and stoned all alone

Teach a man to fish, feed a man for life

Show your kids the truth, and destroy all the lies

Instead of thinking that we're doing fine without you while we're suffering

You'll never see us again tonight

I'm sick of looking for the heroes in the sky

That teach us how to fly

Together we cry, we cry, we cry

Together we cry

Together we cry

There's so much sad gonna flood the ocean

But nothing to do to mend the world that's broken

Together we cry x 3

Author's Note

I really didn't have much idea to edit the third stanza so I left it mostly intact. If you have any suggestions on how to edit that pls tell me...and make it as pessimistic as possible!

nice

A very heartfelt piece. I can see you put alot of yourself into. I agree with you why do we always want to look to the superheros to help when they arent real. Changing the world isnt the easiest task especially for a woman this is so true. The way men sometimes act like we arent worthy to do their jobs! I believe that one day though things will be truly equal. Ill listen to the song

[Coyote Poetry]

Poem is very good as is. The story flowed perfect and you told a good story. Better to cry together then alone. A excellent poem.

[QuietPoet]

I really liked this. I have to listen to the song, I like The Script, so ill listen. Great job on this. The world will always cry, no matter how perfect it may be, someone will always cry and hurt. Sad, really.. Nicely done.

Pessimistic; as in negative, right? Sure, I'm pretty good at that. Send me an E-mail over Writerscafe and we can discuss it if you want*

You still like your songs, eh? Not that I'm complaining. Music is useful; there's music for every emotion known to man- (fastforwarrds through typical monologue) -but that's just me. Good as usual; you really don't need me to elaborate on that, do you?
