Cry On Demand

Ryan Adams · Demolition [2002]

so......

its how the story goes

can we cut to the scene where i'm holding you close

she moves

moves like a pendelum blade

cut all the words that i say

the only difference is

the only difference is

the truth

the truth is i miss you



Cry on demand

how'd you learn to

cry on demand

teach me if you want to

no u dont have to

just close my eyes

and think of you



Real, real like a plastic bouquet

thrives on the smoke from an old fireplace

and dies every night with her face on the news

nobody cries they just smoke and stare at their shoes

the only difference is

the only difference is

nobody can cry

its hard to do

from all the faults

without a reason why



Cry on demand

how'd you learn to

cry on demand

why would you want to

just clsoe your eyes and think of me

take back everything i said

cause she cant hurt me and i cant hurt you

its like were already dead



cry on demand

cry on demand

cry on demand

why would you want to

cry on demand

teach me if you want to

no you dont have to

just close my eyes

I'm thinking of you
