[Verse 1]
When my mom gets sick or I feel worthless
So much worse than I did at seventeen
Now the same angst doesn't live in me no more (Ayy)
As I'm getting older, this shit just gets harder
[Chorus]
How do I cry?
Maybe I've been sucking too much oxygen
Maybe I've been taking too much medicine
How do I cry?
Maybe no amount of carbon can help me through this
[Post-Chorus 1]
Normally crying doesn't need a handbook
But lately, I feel like I do
Normally crying doesn't need a handbook
But lately, I feel like I do
Doctor S said I should just sit and watch
Doctor S said I should take a look inside
[Verse 2]
She said you'll be surprised
At how wet it gets down there
When you're paying attention
But I'm not paying attention
[Chorus]
How do I cry?
Maybe I've been sucking too much oxygen
Maybe I've been taking too much medicine
How do I cry?
Maybe no amount of carbon can help me through this
[Post-Chorus 2]
Doctor S said I should just sit and watch
Doctor S said I should take a look inside
[Outro Spoken]
Normally crying doesn't need a handbook
But lately, I feel like I do
Normally crying doesn't need a handbook
But lately, I feel like I do
