Together we cry,
Jenny was a poor girl
livin' in a rich world
named her baby Hope
but she was just fourteen
she was hopin' for a better world
for this little girl
but the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree
When she gets that call
Hope's too far gone
Her baby's on the way
With nothing left inside
Together we cry
What about the junk head
could've gone the whole way
divin' off the stage tryin' to get a deal
now he's lighting up the wrong way
something for the pain
man you wanna see this kid he was so f*ckin' unreal
When he gets that call
he's too far gone
to get it together to sing one song
they won't hear tonight
the words of a lullaby-ay
Together we cry (yeah, yeah)
Together we cry
wooooooah
Together we cry (oh we cry we cry, oh we cry we cry)
Together we cry
oh, oh
Oh
Mary's ambition: she want' to be a politician
She' been dreamin' about it since she was a girl
she thought that she'd be the one who could change the world
Always tryin' to pave the way for women in a man's world
But life happened, house, kids, two cars,
husband hits the jar, cheques [/checks] that don't go very far now
Now she ain't makin' changes she keeps her mind on her wages,
the only rattling cages are her own!
Together we cry
Together we cry
There's so much sad gonna flood the ocean,
we're all in tears from a world is broken
Together we cry (oh we cry we cry)
There comes a time when every bird has to fly
at some point every rose has to die
It's hard to let your children go
leave home - where they go who knows?
Gettin' drunk gettin' stoned all alone
Teach a man to fish
and feed him never lie (oh lie)
And show your kids the truth and hope they never lie
Instead of readin' in a letter that they've gone for something better
that you're sorry now I won't be comin' home tonight
I'm sick of lookin' for those zeroes in the sky
to teach us how to fly together we cry we cry
Together we cry (cry)
Together we cry
Wooooah
There's so much sad gonna flood the ocean,
we're all in tears from a world is broken
Together we cry (cry)
Together we cry
Together we cry
Together we cry
