I cried the day my grandfather no longer knew my face 
I wept by the window when he died
And when my mother called long distance
To say her mother passed away 
I blubbered on the bus, I couldn't hide

I've cried at many broken hearts, I've sobbed in countless drinks
Over girls with faces I barely now recall
I balled and I ball on the kitchen floor
When living was too much
Pick a room, I've wept in them all

But I can't tell you why
Tonight my eyes are dry 

I always cry at musicals 
When loving dreams are sung
I've stained many books
Their stories false and true
I cry and rom-coms, dramedies
The news and children's films
The Muppet Movie, Frozen, Frozen 2

But I can't tell you why
Tonight my eyes are dry 

What would you call the opposite of a comedian? 
Whatever it is, that's what I wanted to be 
I dreamed of touring the country
Playing small gigs in intimate venues
Sitting on stage in a leather wingback armchair 
And telling tales of woe

The audience would join me in a long collective cry
We would all weep together as one 
I even planned the merchandise
A hundred percent cotton souvenir handkerchiefs 
Embroidered with tour dates 
Available in the foyer after the show 

I'm waiting for the waterworks to come 
But I don't feel a thing, I'm just exhausted and numb
I need some release, I need to make it all real
A lacrimal Niagra, a dramatic reveal
