The Rions – Cry Lyrics

Cry Lyrics by The Rions

Call it discipline, call it love
Call it teaching him how to be tough
You know who that creates, but you don’t care
Fights in school yards spread everywhere

Calls himself such a romantic
Yet, his hands are always telling you off
Loses himself in empty bottles
Get his daughter a role model to love

I don’t know why
I don’t know why we let this slide
Excuses won’t make this right
“It’s just a phase”
Covered in hate, “We saw no signs”
“He’s just a product of the time”

If pathetic was a man, he’d look just like your dad
He’d act the exact same, shed tears out with his hands
Who taught that boy to cry? You know he’ll never change
“Oh boys will just be boys”, what a shame, what a shame

He’ll blame his father
They’ll blame their fathers too
“It’s a sign of the time”
You call it a problem
They’ll call it attitude
And the circle of life

I don’t know why
I don’t know why we let this slide
Excuses won’t make this right
“It’s just a phase”
Covered in hate, “We saw no signs”
“He’s just a product of the times”
“He’s just a product of the times”

I don’t know why
I don’t know why we let this slide
Excuses won’t make this right
“It’s just a phase”
Covered in hate, “We saw no signs”
