EveryTime I Cry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I, I had a dream that I was sinkin', slow motion
(Every superficial moment)
I get overwhelmed in all the messy emotions
(Before that I never noticed)
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, I know, I know that
Angel used to be the Devil on my shoulder
Shoulder, oh, not anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
When the voices get loud, I'm turnin' them down
Feel good in my body forever and ever
When the tears start to fall, I'm catchin' thеm all
And I know the future is bettеr, 'cause

[Chorus]
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger

[Verse 2]
I, I used to spend the nights inside my head, thinkin'
(Where the hell you think you're goin'?)
I, I used to count the days inside my bed, drinkin'
(Up the fear but now I know that)
[Pre-Chorus]
When the voices get loud, I'm turnin' them down
Feel good in my body forever and ever
When the tears start to fall, I'm catchin' them all
And I know the future is better, 'cause

[Chorus]
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger

[Break]
Stronger
Stronger

[Pre-Chorus]
When the voices get loud, I'm turnin' them down
Feel good in my body forever and ever
When the tears start to fall, I'm catchin' them all
And I know the future is better, 'cause

[Chorus]
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger (Stronger)
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger
Stronger, little bit stronger (Oh)
Every time I cry, I get a little bit stronger (Oh)
Stronger, little bit stronger

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Answer

“EveryTime I Cry” is really just about seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and every tear you shed, it makes you also appreciate the good times, and it makes you feel like, “Okay, I deserve to be here, I’ve gone through the struggles and I feel like I learned something.” I think the message of the song is super important for everybody going through hard times.

Is there an official lyric video?
