Cry No More Lyrics

I met the joker
and i stole the moon
i raised the sunshine
and i've been a fool
and i have been laughed at
and i have been lied to
and i have been left alone, with no answer

but i don't cry, i don't cry no more
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't try, i don't try no more
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't lie, i don't lie no more
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't cry no more

i took the picture
i faced the truth
i lived a lifetime, a lifetime with you
and i watch you fall asleep smiling,
while i lay awake
there is only so much
that will make you're day

And i am a hero
but i'm not made of steel
and i'm not the smartest man
but i know the deal
and i'll bleed for your lips
if you'll bleed for mine
and i can escape it
cause i do love you

ooooh,
so i don't cry, i don't cry no more
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't try, i don't try no more
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't lie, i don't lie no more
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't cry no more

Cause i know you want this
but i don't cry, i don't cry nomore
Girl, i know you want this
so i don't cry no more

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

[btw, in verse two, the last line is supposed to be "but there s only so much the woman can take".]

basically, he s saying that he s done and been through alot but he even though he has, he s moved on from it [hince the "i don t cry no more"]. when he says, "girl, i know you want this," it s saying "i know you don t want to be with me and crying won t change it" or "i know this is what you want [to break up] so i ll stop focusing on it/worrying about it/trying to fix it [aka crying/trying/lying]." in the second verse, he means that he realizes that he made his own hurt ["i took the picture...faced the truth"] by smothering her w/ his love && pushing her away ["lived a lifetime w/ you...watched you fall asleep...only so much the woman can take"]. in the third verse, he s saying "i m not all that but i know what s going on ["i know the deal"] and i ll want you only if you want me ["...bleed for your(s) if you ll bleed for mine..."]. well, i hope i was helpful =]

the line you are referring to is actually "there's only so much one man can take" it sounds like woman and many of the lyric sites have it wrong too but he's saying he's done and can't take it anymore.
