Cryin' In The Mornin'

(STARK)
CRYING IN THE MORING
Lani Ford
 2003

I’m shutting down
I’m closing off
Just a little bit longer
Then I’ll stop
You’re cumming over me
Til I can’t sing
The other girls you see
Don’t mean anything

I’m crying in the morning
I’m lonely at night
To call you my boyfriend
Just doesn’t feel right
You’re cool and indifferent
You suck my life dry
I open my soul
While you only lie

And I’m wasting my time
Writing these words
I’m wasting my energy
To only get worse
Than I have ever had
Or ever hoped for
Too bad, so sad
Guess I don’t deserve more

You’re opening statements
Laid down the law
We’re both the plaintiff
Defendant and bar
I’m crying on the phone
You’re saying I’m crazy
It just goes on and on
And everything’s so hazy

I’m going over
Every conversation
Trying to uncover
A little information
As to
Why you let me down
And set me loose
Why you’d shut me out
To turn to blues
You withhold your love
And wonder why
I can’t get enough
And analyze
Why
I’m crying in the whiskey
I’m sleeping around
And when you finally see
I’ll fin’lly be gone
I’m running in the sunshine
I’m dying at dawn
But you would never be mine
So now I’m finally gone
