Cry me out don't want no tears by proxy

Shedding skin for snakes you tried to use

Custom buiIt with no one left to fit you

Too used up from hot and cold abuse

Dance me out my feet are tired and weary

Two steps of a ballerina bare

The drummer doesn't understand or hear me

Hidin' from the bass inside his snare

Dry me out the beers' too cold and draughty

A pick uptruck on Sunset Avenue

Wake me up don't want no tears by proxy

Wrote it on my back in black and blue

Shut me down I windmilled on Chianti

Just can't seem to fight them on my own

The mirror with a crack a joke to soothe me

I lent myself to try to be alone

Cry me out don't want no tears by proxy

Dance me out

Cry me out

Dance me out

Cry me out

Cry me out
