ACT IV - "CRY"
written by BLAKE RUBY
produced by BLAKE RUBY, CHRIS DONLIN & QUINN REEDY

What if I don’t know how to cry
What if my tears ran out so long ago
What if the well was drawn from too many times
Now I’m paralyzed
What if all my emotions dried 
So now I can’t cry with you
I want to hold some of your sorrow too
I don’t know why
I just can’t cry

What if I don’t know how to sing
What if these songs are meant for some other voice
What if a different story has to be told
And I don’t fit the mold
What if my golden years flew by
And I already played my part
Wasn’t I just about to start?
Am I anything
If I can’t sing

YEAH I'LL WAIT
TO SEE TOMORROW GO TWO WAYS
SO EVERY TEAR I'D HAVE TO BORROW GOES TO WASTE
PICK AND CHOOSING EVERY SORROW
SO THAT I CAN SMILE TODAY
BECAUSE I'M SO AFRAID TO CRY
CRY

What if I don’t know how to die
What if I cannot take the bullet for you
What if my ego drags me out of control
And I’m all alone
Will you come running after me
So you can fill me with your love
And set your living water free
So the stained glass perspective
Will be resurrected 
And maybe then I’ll learn to cry
Cry
Yeah maybe then I’ll learn to cry

DANTE'S INFERNO; BEING CHAINED TO A BOULDER OF EMOTIONS AND A SINGLE TEAR COULD MELT THE SHACKLES
CONFESSING IN AN OLD CHURCH WITH BEAUTIFUL STAINED GLASS WINDOWS
TRYING SO HARD TO SHARE YOUR FEELINGS THAT YOU BEGIN TO MALFUNCTION
JUMPING THROUGH EVERY HOOP POSSIBLE TO SHOW THAT YOU CARE SINCE YOU'RE TOO AFRAID TO JUST LET GO
MR. NOBODY; ANXIETY IS NEVER MAKING A CHOICE SO YOU NEVER HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES
ONLY UNCONDITIONAL LOVE CAN BRING BACK THE WATERWORKS 
FRUSTRATED, SAD, HOPEFUL, GLOOMY
BLOWN OUT LIGHTS
TICKING OF A CLOCK
TIN MAN FROM WIZARD OF OZ
SALTY TEARS, CLEAN LAUNDRY, DIRTY, BLOODY KNEES AT RECESS
