Crying for the hungry friends
And you're crying for the struggling friends
And I'm crying over you
Crying over a mother's debt
And you're crying over some other's head
While I'm crying over you
You're working so hard to guard against the weather
You'd shelter the world if you could
But remember we swore that we'd stop each other never
From doing what we've got to, well, it's still understood
And so you're crying for the haunted things
And you're crying for the unwanted things
While I'm crying over you
Crying 'cause somebody cries
And you're crying 'cause everybody dies
And I'm crying over you
I see you working so hard to be a part of something better
It's not some big thing, it's just what you do
But remember the yard when we gardened together?
I can't think of anything better than you
Now I know it's late and I know you're trying
But your time I wouldn't take and I'd never stop you crying
You're crying for the living things
And you're crying for the forgiven things
And I'm crying over you
And now you're crying for depriving things
And you're crying for surviving things
And I'm crying over you
Now, you know my ways and you know that I'm
Also set ablaze by that same fire that makes you cry
And so I'm crying for the war and the dread
And I'm crying 'cause there's more ahead
And I'm crying over you
I'll go on crying for our animal friends
And I'll be crying 'til their suffering ends
While I'm crying over you
