She bites her nails as she waits for the train (uh huh)
You won't look up because you know she's insane (that's right)
And if you touch her she'll shout through the tears
She'll pull your hair and scream in your ears

The meaning it goes away sometimes
I know all the words but they don't seem to rhyme
Sometimes all I can do is lie
She says as the water pours from her eyes

You can't
Make me cry
You can try, you can try
But you can't
Make me cry
You can try, you can try
But you can't
Make me cry
You can try, you can try
But you can't
Make me cry
You can try, you can try

Bloody nose and a broken tooth
Black and blue all over you
You say as you walk her to the bus
You're beat enough for the two of us

You'll go over under and backwards now
Things that you want are what you're not allowed
The people trying to bring you down
Are the only ones who want you around

But they can't
Make you cry
They can try, they can try
But they can't
Make you cry
They can try, they can try
But they can't
Make you cry
They can try, they can try
But they can't
Make you cry
They can try, they can try
