When I cry, I close my eyes
And every tear falls down inside
And I pray with all my might
that I will find my heart in someone's arms
When I cry, cry
When I cry
When I am sad I think of every awful thing I ever did
Oh When I cry, there is no love,
No there is nothing that can comfort me enough
When I cry,
Cry, cry
The salt inside my body ruins everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holding up my head
I am so tired of looking at my feet
Or all the secrets that I keep
My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread
Oh look at me
At all I've done
I've lost so many things that I so dearly love
I lost my soul
I lost my pride
Oh I lost any hope of having a sweet life
So I cry,
Cry, cry
Oh the salt inside my body ruins everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holding up my head
Oh I'm so tired of looking at my feet
And all the secrets that I keep
My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread
I miss you all
I wish I was with you now
I wish I was

Review about Hangin' By A Thread Supposedly written for Jann's brother | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/6/09
I've heard that Jann wrote this song for her brother, who is/was in prison. It was supposedly written from his perspective - what he was feeling about himself - being truly repentent of what he had done to get himself there.

If you think about what all this person was feeling when they wrote this song it just breaks my heart for them. What happended to them to make them feel like this? What inspired this song? To some degree we can all identify with the evil and guilt that this person sings about. We all mess up... it's unavoidable..... and finally someone wrote a meaningful song with substance and made it into this piece of art that will touch your heart with not only its melody, its tune, but its message. It's a message of real life and real hurt... and we can all identify
What a touching song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/22/07
I love this song.It pretty much sums up how a very depressed love one must have felt before she committed suicide.Thanks to Jann for all of her talent!
