Why Must I Cry

Rick Rhythm

Why must I cry when things go bad
Why must I cry when I feel so sad
Why must the tears flow from my eyes
Down my face like stormy skies
p*ss it  to cleanse my heart and my  soul
To put my troubles
In a small round bowl
Dose it make me strong after the fact
Dose it fill up every little crack
What is the answer
I'M not really sure
Oh how I wish I could find a cure
To end mans troubles day by day
And help the world along the way
Oh Why Must I Cry
