Jaymay - Lonely Men Built Lonely Cities Lyrics
Lonely men built lonely citiesShe worked hard until she was beautifulStill he noticed nothing unusual, this was his wayHe's gonna stay devoted to the projectAnd she's committed herself to not caring anymoreHer heart wasn't sore, she was sure she had curedThe burden of loving someoneMay be better than loving no oneShe's lookin' up, her mind says maybeOr else she's so crazy it's slaveryTo begin it again, pick it up from the endSave the pieces that never gave, never bendStill, the whole time there's this lightIt wont let her say goodnightSome white beam of hope in the skyHas her questioning whyHas her constantly tryin' and lyin' insideHas her hidin' away like some potential brideWho keeps turnin' her back like the turn of the tideThe burden of loving someoneMay be better than loving no oneThe burden of loving someoneMay be better than loving no oneWhen you feel what you're feelin' with all of your mightYou write down to tell and sing like hell in the night'Bout the man on your mind when you turn out the lightWho ignited the room when invited insideWho now is long gone and despite how forthrightWas the song you played just to show how uptightAnd embarrassed he made you, your loves stay strongConvincing words appear backwards and wrongIt just doesn't make sense to want to belongWith a guy who made you all tense and withdrawnIt shows you in the corner where the walls shadowsSilhouette the one you won't let go who hasn't arrived yetAnd he won't, you know, you can just forget about him thoughThe burden of loving someoneMay be better than loving no oneThe burden of loving someoneMay be better than loving no oneI'm not so sure about that, it's not matter of factIf the world fell in half are you for itAdoring to kick back, relax, and laugh and deploreCursin' all of the fools who exist to imploreWriting books cursing morons who toreWhat they swore gave them reasons to be:I love him, he loves meAnd the burden of loving someoneMay be better than loving no oneThe burden of loving someoneMay be better
