  • You seem to replace
    Your brain with your heart
    You take things so hard
    And then you fall apart

    You try to explain
    But before you can start
    Those cry baby tears
    Come out of the dark

    Someone's turning the handle
    To that faucet in your eyes
    They're pouring out
    Where everyone can see

    Your heart's too big for your body
    It's why you won't fit inside
    You pour it out
    Where everyone can see

    They call you cry baby, cry baby
    But you don't fucking care
    Cry baby, cry baby
    So you laugh through your tears
    Cry baby, cry baby
    'Cause you don't fucking care
    Tears fall to the ground
    You just let them drown

    You just let them drown
    Cry baby, cry baby

    You're all on your own and
    You lost all your friends
    You told yourself that
    It's not you, it's them

    You're one of a kind
    And no one understands
    But those cry baby tears
    Keep coming back again

    Someone's turning the handle
    To that faucet in your eyes
    They're pouring out
    Where everyone can see

    Your heart's too big for your body
    It's why you won't fit inside
    You pour it out
    Where everyone can see

    They call you cry baby, cry baby
    But you don't fucking care
    Cry baby, cry baby
    So you laugh through your tears
    Cry baby, cry baby
    'Cause you don't fucking care
    Tears fall to the ground
    You just let them drown

    Cry baby, cry baby
    You just let them drown
    Cry baby, cry baby
    You just let them drown

    I look at you and I see myself
    And I know you better than anyone else
    And I have the same faucet in my eyes
    So your tears are mine

    They call me cry baby, cry baby
    But I don't fucking care
    Cry baby, cry baby
    I laugh through my tears
    Cry baby, cry baby
    'Cause I don't fucking care
    Tears fall to the ground
    I just let them drown

    Cry baby, cry baby
    I just let them drown
    Cry baby, cry baby
    You just let them drown
    They call you cry baby, cry baby
    I just let them drown
    Cry baby, cry baby
    You just let them drown Writer/s: Jeremy Dussolliet, Melanie Martinez, Timothy Sommers
