As my tears fall into the river,
I get a cold and sudden shiver,
I take a sip of vodka to try and forget,
And I light up another cigarette,
But no matter how hard I’m trying,
I can’t stop myself from crying,
And as those tears run down from my eyes,
I confuse myself with ifs and whys,
And with my tears now going downstream,
I can only move on and dream,
My day is almost over and soon I’ll face another,
I tell my reflection about my day and no other,
But by now my tears have travelled to the sea,
With my memories, thoughts, and a piece of me,
I’m waking up with a sore throat and a bad head,
And I face the day with my problems now put to bed,
If my tears reach you, life will let me be,
As you will suffer the same as me
The world gave me troubles and taken them away too,
I cried, and now so will you.
