When A Man Cries - The Divine Comedy[00:00:00]
When a child cries the tears rise quickly[00:00:09]
Spill hot and prickly[00:00:14]
Down the reddened cheeks[00:00:18]
Just to leave as quickly as they came[00:00:27]
And peace returns again[00:00:32]
When a child cries you know about it[00:00:40]
They scream and shout until the hurt is gone[00:00:46]
Like a shower of rain that for a moment[00:00:58]
Hides away the sun[00:01:03]
But when a man cries it's choked and throttled[00:01:09]
It's all been bottled up for far too long[00:01:16]
And when at last the pressure cooker blows[00:01:29]
It's hard to stem the flow[00:01:33]
When a man cries his body shakes[00:01:41]
And his eyeballs ache[00:01:46]
And his mind vibrates[00:01:49]
But he doesn't make a sound[00:01:53]
Don't wanna wake the house now[00:01:59]
Well the reasons are vague[00:02:10]
And hard to put in words[00:02:13]
Just a dull abstract ache [00:02:16]
Don't wanna worry her[00:02:19]
She would only ask[00:02:22]
What's wrong and I'd try to say[00:02:23]
Then she'd take all my pain and explain it away[00:02:28]
But who can explain why a man cries[00:02:34]
When a man cries he cries alone[00:03:16]
And for just a moment he's back at home[00:03:21]
Cradled in his mother's arms[00:03:28]
Free from guilt and safe from harm[00:03:34]
