Lyrics:

It’s making you cry every time you give your love to me this way
Saying you’d wait for me to stay, I know it hurts you,
But I need to tell you something
My heart just can’t be faithful for long
I swear I’ll only make you cry

Maybe I’d change for you someday, but I can’t help the way I feel
Wish I was good, wish that I could give you my love now…

[adammcchicken]

sometimes i worry about you, the stranger reading these words through a screen in the dark. the stranger who is fighting a war by yourself. it's not easy being you but you do it to the best of your abilities. it's not easy being you and yet you survive on nights like this. you inspire me so much despite being a stranger. you inspire these words as you continue to fight for the love you deserve. i know it feels like moving on is impossible and sometimes you don't even know where to start but I hope you know that there's a power that lives within you. a power that no one can destroy. a power that can be used to set yourself free. sometimes i worry about you but then i remember how strong you are. i believe in you, please believe in yourself.
take care.

i genuinely can't believe that there are people who cry on drivers license when there are songs like this

[LouiseCubidon]

It's 9 Pm.
There's a beautiful moon rounded by the stars. A little wind comes and goes. And I'm listening to this beautiful song while looking at the sky, thinking about the future, my future in my country, Haïti.
It's scary for this 24 years old man writing this down.

[amuyay]

I seriously can’t put into words the way that my heart sinks when the beat drops at the beginning. I just burst out crying.

The unique style of Cigarette After Sex is what makes us so addicted to his songs..listening to your songs is like dancing with my love in a rainy day knowing that he’s well be gone tomorrow.

[inninae]

[StvrryJ]

This hits deep in my heart knowing I’ll probably be alone for the rest of my life

[GrimaLacrimarium]

The song describes a toxic relationship where one of them gives more affection than the other, which constantly leads to hurting the person who is more affectionate.

This band is like a little secret....A little secret we protect...

مِن المُؤلَم أن تكُون أصْدق مِمَا يتوقعُون، ويكُونُون هُم أكذَب مِمَا توقعْتهم .

[cigarettes]

هُنا ستدخل الى عالم جديد، عالم مليء بالمشاعر المختلطة، الحُزن، الكأبة، الوحدة، الخيانة، تفكير بعلاقاتك السابقة، التفكير بِحاضرك و مُستقبلك، الكثير و الكثير من المشاعر، اهلًا بِك بعالم أُغنية " CRY " .

I am a security guard at a factory in Turkey. When I listen to this song alone at night and look up at the sky for a moment, I know there is someone in a town beyond the oceans who feels the same as me. This is great!

[aecelik]

This was the song that came on the radio while I was driving to work after the February 6th earthquake in Turkey. It was a cold Thursday morning and I still couldn't reach my ex-girlfriend who lived right in the epicenter of the earthquake zone. It had been more than 72 hours since the earthquake and I was beginning to accept that she didn't make it. We still loved each other, but family disagreements a few months before had forced us to separate. After the song came up, I couldn't help but be reminiscent of our good times back in the day. I started to think of what I wouldn't give to hear her soothing voice, only if it was for a few seconds, just for her to tell me she was okay. This song reminds me of her, and the countless text messages and phone calls that went unanswered. A fading cry toward the abyss.

[Amama-edfo]

The song and the comment section is like a really warm hug.

[CarolImrie]

Just came across this group by chance, my Dad passed away in April and I know he would have loved this music, makes me and my daughter cry everytime we listen to this song. Please come to Scotland ❤❤😢😢😢

[Popcorn-hend]

When I listen to their songs i feel like im in another world

[violettekuromi]

this song is literally making me cry everytime

[whynugs]

It feels like you've been walking away so long, and suddenly you stop just to look back and remember all the good memories you just passed for a good future ahead.

[cigarettes]

البدرُ أنتَ و ما عداكَ كواكبُ،، و النورُ أنتَ و ما سواكَ ظَلامُ.

[JanatJ]

Some songs like this dont need music videos. We all imagine different scenes in our mind.
