Don’t Wanna Cry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Left the door wide open for the whole wide world to see you
And you kiss her right in front of me like I’m not even there

[Pre-Chorus]
I should cause a scene for shit you have done to me
The saddest part is we both know that I would never leave
You know how it goes, everybody knows
I’m just another hand you hold

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I know I’m the one to blame
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I’m the one blame

[Verse 2]
I know that I said I’d forgive you once, but, baby
It’s been a hundred times, and I still crawl back for more

[Pre-Chorus]
I should cause a scene for shit you have done to me
The saddest part is we both know that I would never leave
You know how it goes, everybody knows
I’m just another hand you hold

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I know I’m to blame
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I’m the one to blame

[Bridge]
One day, you’re gonna wake up
But all that’s left is my pillow and makeup
Saying “c’est la vie” ’cause, baby, the game’s up
Now I found another hand to hold

[Outro]
(I’m to blame)
(I’m to blame)

Don’t Wanna Cry Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
In the first verse, Selena vividly expresses the pain of being exposed to her partner’s affection for someone else, making her feel invisible. The imagery of leaving the door “wide open” symbolizes her emotional vulnerability, and the act of the partner kissing someone else right in front of her amplifies the feeling of betrayal. This sets the tone for the song’s theme of heartbreak and emotional distress.

[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus highlights the internal struggle Selena faces, where she contemplates confronting her partner for their actions but admits that, despite the hurt, she would never leave. The acknowledgment that she is “just another hand you hold” reflects her diminished sense of self-worth, trapped in a cycle of emotional submission.

[Chorus]
The chorus captures the emotional exhaustion and resignation that comes with the realization that nothing will change. Selena repeatedly sings, “I don’t wanna cry now,” which expresses her desire to stop feeling the pain, yet she is unable to escape it. The line “Baby, I know I’m the one to blame” indicates her self-reflection and guilt over staying in a harmful relationship.

[Verse 2]
In the second verse, Selena confesses that even though she promised to forgive her partner once, she finds herself repeating the same pattern over and over. The repetition of “It’s been a hundred times” emphasizes her emotional entrapment and inability to break free from the cycle, despite knowing the relationship is damaging.

[Pre-Chorus]
This section reiterates the emotional turmoil from the previous pre-chorus, deepening the feeling of helplessness. Selena recognizes that she will likely stay despite the hurt, revealing her internal conflict and the emotional toll of accepting mistreatment without leaving.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats again, reinforcing the idea of resignation and self-blame. The lack of change in the situation and the feeling of powerlessness are central themes in this part of the song, capturing the emotional exhaustion that comes with repeated hurt in a toxic relationship.

[Bridge]
In the bridge, Selena envisions a future without her partner, where all that remains is a physical reminder of their past relationship—her pillow and makeup. The phrase “c’est la vie” signals acceptance of the inevitable end, and the line “Now I found another hand to hold” symbolizes her move toward emotional independence, signifying the closure of the chapter.

[Outro]
The outro, with its repetition of “I’m to blame,” serves as a final moment of self-reflection. Selena acknowledges her role in allowing the relationship to persist despite its toxicity, suggesting that both parties share responsibility for the emotional turmoil.
