Cry

My favorite thing to do is crying,
It makes me feel better.
Crying is my best friend,
It always comforts me.

Whenever I am sad,
I cry.
Whenever I am angry,
I cry.
Whenever I am depressed,
I cry.
Whenever I am unlucky,
I cry.

My favorite thing to do is crying,
It makes me happy.
Crying is a great solace,
I would never get tired of crying.

They unbelievably abandon me,
I cry at night.
They don't need me,
I cry at night.
They completely forget me,
I cry at night.
They immediately leave me,
I cry at night.

My favorite thing to do is crying,
It makes me want to do it all night long.
Crying cleanses my wounded heart,
Making it free from anger and depression.

I wonder why I am still breathing,
It makes me cry.
I wonder why I struggle,
It makes me cry.
I wonder why I strive so hard,
It makes me cry.
I wonder why I am so worthless,
It makes me cry, I wanna die.
