Lonesome Lullaby

Lyrics

I listened to the whine for way too long
 Time for me to hear a different song
 I waited overtime for things to turn around
 Tired of waiting for it all to hit the ground.
 You said you knew all about it
 What was right and what was wrong
 You pulled the wool over the eyes of everyone
 Maybe I was weak when I should've been strong.
 Cry, baby, cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
 Cry, baby, cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby.
 You took me by surprise and like a shot in the dark (shot in the dark)
 You showed yourself in your truest light (truest light)
 You saved yourself by saving nobody else
 You must have cringed when you heard them tell.
 Cry, baby, cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
 Cry, baby, cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby.
 You took the wrong turn at the city of dreams (city of dreams)
 You ended up back where you came from it seems (came from it seems)
 Back there to where there's nothing else to do
 Back there where you can sit and think of only you.
 Cry, baby, cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
 Cry, baby, cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby.
 Cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby
 Cry
 Tell me 'bout your lonesome lullaby...

 ...Your lonesome lullaby.
