[Chorus]
Sometimes life can put you down
Lay you out to drown
I find myself cryin' sometimes
No reason why, I dry my eyes

[Verse 1: The O'My's]
Mama told me never throw no stones
'Cause them stones they might break bones
But words break hearts
I knew it from the start
You will always have a piece of mine
Can you feel it?
I miss you like I left you, baby
Can't you see?
You were meant for me
I find myself cryin' sometimes
Singin' to myself, la da da da da
Some fly away, please take me somewhere else
'Cause I can't see the sunshine in the morning
In the evening, baby girl, I'm so alone
Please pick up the telephone
I'm callin' (He's callin' for you)

[Chorus]
Sometimes life can put you down
Lay you out to drown
I find myself cryin' sometimes
No reason why, I dry my eyes
Sometimes life can put you down
Lay you out to drown
I find myself cryin' sometimes
No reason why, I dry my eyes
[Verse 2: Noname]
Uh, you ever find yourself in a dark alley
With a blunt and a shot glass and tickets to Cali?
Like, bottoms up to the back of the bus
With a dream and a suitcase, and a man I can trust
Mister Jackson, Daniel, pianos, and mantels
Nina Simone alone teachin' the candles
Like, "You don't know how to burn, baby, try again"
I know the lady in the mirror, and I seen a faker grin
This is happy, it's fightin' back the actin'
This is cryin', it's fakin' all the laughin'
I'm good, you can see me get my smile on
Called the pearly gates, and all I got was a dial tone
I feel like wishin' is only good for kids
Birthdays, and genies, Aladdin taught me how to live
You got to take what you want in this life
Even the memories of makin' it through the darkest nights
Uh, yeah
You got to take what you want in this life
Even the memories of makin' it through the darkest nights

[Chorus]
Sometimes life can put you down
Lay you out to drown
I find myself cryin' sometimes
No reason why, I dry my eyes
