lyrics

Stood in the corner of a crowded room
Tapping my feet to the points of view
They’re all whistling the same tune
I just keep watching the clock until the music stops
For every model who’s too into their looks
There is a poet who’s never read a book
They try so hard to be misunderstood
And while I don’t understand it they seem to be quite happy but

Every night I cry
I’m a cynical guy

My eyes spin like a Katherine Wheel
I’ll feel exactly how they want me to feel
I force a laugh and it sounds like a squeal
And before I know it insecurities are showing but,

Every night I cry
I’m a cynical guy
Oh yeah, every night I cry
I’m a cynical guy

Oh why would people come to me
I’m only here to waste some time
I never cared about your stories
Or your pantomime
Can’t somebody tell me
There’s a little more to life
And you wonder why
Every night I cry

Oh every night I cry
Every night I cry
Every night I cry
I’m a cynical guy
