Cries In Vain Lyrics

Lord i know i’ve cried
A thousand tears tonight
But nothing seems to quench the thirst you keep on craving!

But now I need an answer to my prayers and you’re not there,
So I think you listen

*semi hardcore voice*
listen
*semi hardcore voice*

Has no one told you
Your cries are all in vain
And everyone keeps on trying to take that all away

Has no one told you
Your cries are all in vain

*semi hardcore voice*
your cries
*semi hardcore voice*

Lord I can’t disguise
The look inside my eyes
The more i try to look away the more i’m staring

But now i need an answer to my prayers and you’re not there
So i think you listen

*semi hardcore voice*
listen
*semi hardcore voice*

Has no one told you
Your cries are all in vain
And everyone keeps on trying to take that all away

Has no one told you
Your cries are all in vain

*semi hardcore voice*
your cries
*semi hardcore voice*

Your cries in vain
Your cries in vain
Your cries in vain
Your cries in vain

*semi hardcore voice*
you look away……away…..away…
*semi hardcore voice*

*Guitar solo*

Has no one told you
Your cries are all in vain
And everyone keeps on trying to take that all away

Has no one told you
Your cries are all in vain

*semi hardcore voice*
your cries!
*semi hardcore voice*

Has nobody told you when you look away
The stories they told you still run through your veins

Has nobody told you when you look away
The stories they told you still run through…..

*semi hardcore voice*
…….run through your veins!
*semi hardcore voice*

this is my favourite song at the moment, its absolutely excellent. But i take the meaning the literally. To me it sounds like he is yelling at God for not being there when he needs Him, but at the same time he's talking to the people that still follow God that He isnt listening and so 'Your cries are all in vain'

This guys are definitely going somewhere.

Great song, So poweful. They really kick ass.

Cover art for Cries In Vain lyrics by Bullet for My Valentine

this band is awsome. definitely going somewhere. They are the new beginning of metal. I think this song is about how no one listens to him and when they do they dont understand properely and how they say lies. At the beginning theres a relation to god but i think its just a metaphor to all the people who thinkg theyre mighty and thing theyre the top of the world

i reckon that this song is a bout a man praying to god but god dosent answer him and he is crying cuase wat he was praying for wasnt answered and the "cries in vain"bit is non belivers saying ur wasting ur time or ur cries are in vain...but he keeps praying and he dosent answer again"but now i need an answer...... and ur not there "...god aint there again...and The more i try to look away the more i’m staring"" no matter how much he trys to not belive in god the more he doees so he keeps praying to god but he dosent answer"... and the stories he has been bought up with still run through his viens like he belives in the so dearly... well taht was my first attempt of the meaning of a song...mybad if it is totally offtrack

Cover art for Cries In Vain lyrics by Bullet for My Valentine

i went to the kerrang tour yesterday.. and matt tuck said this song was about there struugle or our struggle to get something.. and even if sometimes u dnt feel you can get tehre u always can.. u can achieve anything u want if u try hard enough even when it seems like the whole world is against you

Cover art for Cries In Vain lyrics by Bullet for My Valentine

I think this is just the band telling everyone to basically put up or shut up, there's no point complaining, it isn't going to help, either you sort something out or you forget about it. I've had The Poison on repeat on my PC for 3 days and I still get freaking lightning down my spine when I hear the chorus of every song.

Mark my words.... You think this band are big, well they're going to get a hell of a lot bigger.
