The Crying Game - Boy George & Culture Club

Sometimes denial feels like a hole in the sky Cutting me down in my prime You took my time, keep running your mouth on my dime Crying 'cause you lost your free ride It's not you It's on me I let myself believe Still you Can't see I see through all your schemes Every time I push you away You come back Back to me to place the blame This crying game Maybe you'll see, not just me that you mislead Focused on the things that you'll never be, no no no And time takes time, we're all on the clock for your crimes The price is something that you could never pay It's not you It's on me I let myself believe Still you Can't see I see through all your schemes Every time I push you away You come back Back to me to place the blame This crying game It's not you It's on me I worked hard for these dreams Every time I push you away You play this crying game Every time I push you away You come back Back to me to place the blame This crying game It's not you It's on me I worked hard for these dreams Every time I push you away You play this crying game Sick of pretending that you're fine No no no That gun in your mouth just isn't mine No no no Sick of pretending that you're fine No no no That gun in your mouth just isn't mine

A black cat moans When he's burning with the fever A stray dog howls When he's lonely in the night A woman goes crazy With the though of retribution But, a man starts weeping When he's sick and tired of life I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow Feel I'm wasting my time Lighting candles in the wind, Always taking my chances On the promise of the future But, a heart full of sorrow Paints a lonely tapestry The sun is shining But, it's raining in my heart No one understands the heartache, No one feels the pain, Cause no one ever sees the tears When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain, Crying in the rain I can never deny All the sweet things I have tasted Tho' I've been mistreated I keep coming back for more, I know where I'm going There's no hope of absolution I can't seem to separate The good times from the bad The sun is shining But, it's raining in my heart No one understands the heartache, No one feels the pain, Cause no one ever sees the tears When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain The sun is shining But, it's raining in my heart No one understands the heartache, No one feels the pain, Cause no one ever sees the tears When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain, When you're crying in the rain Crying in the rain
