Don't Cry

I'll always be my own worst critic
The world exists and I'm just in it
Find something good and mess it up
Lie and say it just wasn't enough
I'll always be my own worst critic

And I hate to suffocate
Between something I love, something I hate
If I don't know who I am
How can I ever give a damn?

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
At some point, your hero must die
To escape the hands of time
It's okay to not be alright and
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Face the truth and bare your soul
Lose yourself and break your heart
It's a beautiful thing to fall apart

Always runnin' outta time
Another's world wrapped up in mine
On a trip so devout until I get bored, and I check out
Always running outta time

I won't try to justify the things I've done, the lies I've lied
I can't leave the past in the past
I smell it on my breath, I can't go back

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
At some point, your hero must die
To escape the hands of time
It's okay to not be alright and
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Face the truth and bare your soul
Lose yourself and break your heart
It's a beautiful thing to fall apart

I am not who I seem
My alter ego takes the lead
Sit back and let her drive
But only one makes it out alive
I gotta take control
Lose myself to gain my soul

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
At some point, your hero must die
To escape the hands of time
It's okay to not be alright and
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Face the truth and bare your soul
Lose yourself and break your heart
It's a beautiful thing to fall apart

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, yeah
Let it go, let it go, let it go, ooh
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, yeah
Let it go, let it go, let it go
