Biography:
Crywank are a three-piece DIY folk band from Manchester, England. They focus mostly on sad songs.
Crywank started in 2009 with James Clayton attempting to do some folk-punk influenced acoustic music with no previous experience playing guitar. The first album "James is going to die soon" was inspired by a painful break up. James stated that "I wrote these songs out of frustration and sadness and they ended up making me feel a lot better, I hope they have a similar effect on you".

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Capo on fourth fret
For more advanced players, I'd recommend eschewing the capo in favour of open chords so you can play the
melody for the verse, which is simple, and pretty easy to play.

[Intro]
Am C F C Em
x2
[Verse]
Am C
Thought cycle gusty a mind filled with hot air.
F C Em
Must I care for nothing more than myself? Do I dare
Am C
admit the fraught thoughts cavorting? Resorting in inner-directed mourning
F C Em
for the part of me that was selfless but left without a warning.
Am C
Well that’s what I said, but maybe it’s the fact that I detest
F C Em
this obsession with myself that’s left a mess inside my head.
Am C
Oh shit I’m doing it again, repelling any potential friend,
F C Em
revealing my innate ability to never fully comprehend
Am C
anything bigger than myself, but in the end I still pretend.
F C Em
Condescending anyone polite enough to choose to misspend their time
Am C
watching me as I achieve my secret social mission.
F C Em
To drain people with my boring stories and opinions.
Am C
To see the bigger picture takes intelligence and wisdom,
F C Em
but I won’t see nothing more with just myself in my vision.
[Chorus]
Am C F C
[Verse]
Am C F C Em
x2
Am C F
I go outside a blitz of faces unwilling to admit to any empathy,
C Em
endlessly incessantly declining any pleasantries.
Am C F
Heavily breathing, socially teething. I’m open like a vivisection.
C Em
Intense tendency to dwell, seething over missed connections.
Am C
Infected by my perceptions that I’m a non-entity,
F C Em
project my insecurity until intensity is weaponry.
Am C
Grieving a heavenly fiction I perceived whilst I was dreaming.
F C Em
Awake! Freezing, wheezing, fundamentally I’m still believing that,
Am C
this is an elegy for concepts I conceived in deep sleep,
F C Em
as I helplessly watch them fade whilst I awake, I try and keep them alive.
Am C
Incomparable with life but eventually they die
F C Em
and the brain I used to cultivate reveals my lovers were a lie. |
[Chorus]
Am C F C
[Verse]
Am C F C Em
x2
Am C
When inside my mind I find a way to replicate reality.
F C Em
Through lucid dreaming I decimate the limitations of actuality.
Am C
Capacity practically eternal, mortality external,
F C Em
no god but I investigate the blasphemous worship of the nocturnal.
Am C F
Internally existing without morality creates profanities without the travesty
C Em Am
and compared to the apathy of realness I reveal my own insanity.
C F
The majesty of fantasy protects me from tragedy.
C Em
Normality's effects reject the agony of rationality.
Am C
Which thankfully penetrates with no avail to my unreality,
F C Em
an elaborately designed privately owned spiral galaxy.
Am C
Financially I’m failing, naturally decaying.
F C Em
Soon I’ll have no safe place to sleep if these bills still need paying,
Am C
displaying cravings with open eyes for something mind expanding
F C Em
for when I drift away I see the totality of understanding.
