In heavy air I feel it creep
And our eyes can't meet
A poison word that you chose
And the distance grows

And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna die a little more every day
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna die a little more every day

To pull yourself from harm
To be the braver one
To raise a weary hand
In a house that's built on sand
To wear it like a crown
To kick before you drown
To fight it and to cry no more

Will I be the warrior?
Or will the axe shine clean?
Steely eyed, your blood'll burn
I will save our lives

And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna die a little more every day
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna die a little more every day

To pull yourself from harm
To be the braver one
To raise a weary hand
In a house that's built on sand
To wear it like a crown
To kick before you drown
To fight it and to cry no more

Cry no more
I don't wanna die a little more every day
I don't wanna cry no more
I don't wanna die a little more every day
