Cry Pretty by Carrie Underwood


I don't know this song very well, this might be the first time I've listened to it all the way through but I listened to it enough to put it on my playlist. The album itself doesn't come out for a few more months though. It's also the first song on this blog from 2018.



I'm sorry
But I'm just a girl not usually the kind to show my heart to the world
I'm pretty good at keeping it together
I hold my composure for worse or for better
So I apologize
If you don't like what you see
But sometimes my emotions get the best of me
And falling apart is as human as it gets
You can't hide it, you can't fight what the truth is

You can pretty lie
And say it's okay
You can pretty smile
And just walk away
Pretty much fake your way through anything
But you can't cry pretty

Oh no, you can't dress it up in lace or rhinestones
Don't matter if you're in a crowd or home all alone
Yeah, it's all the same when you're looking in the mirror
A picture of pain
So let it flow like a river

You can pretty lie
And say it's okay
You can pretty smile
And just walk away
Pretty much fake your way through anything
But you can't cry pretty

You can't turn off the flood when the dam breaks
When all your mascara is going to waste
When things get ugly you just gotta face
That you can't cry pretty
Oh, no, you can't...

You can't turn off the flood when the dam breaks
When all your mascara is going to waste
When things get ugly you just gotta face
That you can't cry pretty... yeah yeah yeah yeah
No, you can't cry
No, you can't cry
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
No no no...
You can't cry
You can't cry pretty, baby, oh yeah

No, you can't cry pretty...
