Big Girls Cry Lyrics

Tough girl in the fast lane
No time for love, no time for hate
No drama, no time for games
Tough girl whose soul aches

I'm at home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing, though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it’s agony

I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don’t look pretty
Big Girls Cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking

Tough girl, I'm in pain
It's lonely at the top, black outs and airplanes
And I still pour you a glass, of champagne
Tough girl whose soul aches

I'm at home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing, though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it’s agony

I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you’ve taken
And I don’t care if I don’t look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up,
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up,
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up,
I love

I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don’t look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking

Big Girls Cry

Despite the claims of The Four Seasons and Fergie, the toughest girl does break down once in a while.

I don't care if I don't look beauty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

The soaring ballad finds Sia singing about a hard-bitten girl who lives alone. Having bottled up her emotions, she finally breaks down over the lack of a text message from the man she loves.

Sia penned the song with English singer-songwriter Chris Braide. The pair previously collaborated on Britney Spears' single, "Perfume " and David Guetta's hit tune "She Wolf (Falling to Pieces)."

Directed by Sia with Daniel Askill, the video is the Australian singer-songwriter's third collaboration with Maddie Ziegler. Filmed in front of a stark black backdrop, the preteen dancer and actress performs straight to camera with only her shoulders upwards in view for the majority of the clip. Ziegler previously appeared in Sia's videos for "Chandelier" and "Elastic Heart."
