She said “cry me a river,” but I’m all out of tears
I made the investment, and gave into my fears
I’ll cry you a river, if you just lend an ear
Cause all the saddest stories need a witness to hear
So come one come all, it’s the tale of the year
We all need something eerie so we know when to cheer
When covered in darkness, and you give into fear
You’ll find the saddest stories, make the nighttime so clear
She went down to the Devil, he said “Why are you here?”
I’ve come to make a deal, if you would just lend an ear
He sat up in his throne, then he grinned ear to ear
You had me at a deal, so let's talk business my dear
She needed a favor, and he needed some fun
She told him of her troubles and the things she had done
He said I am not the choir, so don’t preach to me
Your sins will not be judged so long as you do not run
She said “cry me a river,” but I’m all out of tears
I made the investment, and gave into my fears
I’ll cry you a river, if you just lend an ear
Cause all the saddest stories need a witness to hear
So come one come all, it’s the tale of the year
We all need something eerie so we know when to cheer
When covered in darkness, and you give into fear
You’ll find the saddest stories, make the nighttime so clear
She said "Why would I run, when I’m the one who came here?"
I’m in need of assistance now that you’ve lent an ear
He said darling don’t fret, you have nothing to fear
The ones who’ve done you wrong will all be dead in a year
She panicked and screamed, all strung out in despair
This isn’t what I wanted, how on earth could you dare
He said be careful what you wish for, cause life is not fair
When dealing with the Devil, you should always beware
She said “cry me a river,” but I’m all out of tears
I made the investment, and gave into my fears
I’ll cry you a river, if you just lend an ear
Cause all the saddest stories need a witness to hear
So come one come all, it’s the tale of the year
We all need something eerie so we know when to cheer
When covered in darkness, and you give into fear
You’ll find the saddest stories, make the nighttime so clear
