about

“Make Me Cry” is a track about gathering strength in the face of a romantic betrayal, packaged as dance floor-ready breakbeat-pop. It plays to CIFIKA’s strengths- well- crafted melodies and layered polyphony.

“This song went through many versions- keeping the same meanings and feelings but totally changing the components, like the melody or the words. I wanted to make the bass and drums rhythmic and strong, like some of my favorite breakbeat tracks. But I went through a lot of different versions with the melody to find the one that felt the most persuasive.”

lyrics

Make me cry

[Verse 1]
I was far away
From all of my senses I could not get away
Thoughts that take me down All the way to bottom
heavy on my weight
It’s alright I can find Another way out, right Focus on your mind
Oh remember days that I Looked in to your eyes Never I have seen such color
You said I haven’t
been true enough to have you Say all that you can
To make me fall for you again
[Chorus]
You don’t wanna make me cry,
no, get out of my mind
You know that I was all in, don’t deny
I don’t really care how you feel, all is lie
Oh You’re not gonna make me, not again, fall again
[Verse 2]
No one to blame this pain
It’s only because of that flame The one that in your eyes
Oh remember days that I Looked in to your eyes Never I have seen such color
You said I haven’t
been true enough to have you Say all that you can
To make me fall for you again
[Chorus]
You don’t wanna make me cry,
no, get out of my mind
You know that I was all in, don’t deny
I don’t really care how you feel, all is lie
Oh You’re not gonna make me, not again, fall again
[Chorus]
You don’t wanna make me cry,
no, get out of my mind
You know that I was all in, don’t deny
I don’t really care how you feel, all is lie
Oh You’re not gonna make me, not again, fall again
