All love is devout, no feeling is a waste

But give it to yourself now before it’s too late

 In the end, it’s just you, stop drowning in wait

 Your love is useless without it

Now that Adele is empty of emotion, and can’t seem to get herself back on track emotionally, she sees herself drifting to loneliness. She is lonely and depressed. It is affecting her, and makes her cry for an extended period “Cry her heart out.”

 Her tears are affecting her skin, leaving it creepy, and harming her health, which according to her, may be drawing her close to death.

This she sang in the following lines

I’m hanging by a thread

My skin’s paper-thin, I can’t stop wavering

Meaning of some words

Crying your heart out means crying for a long period.

Dead in the eyes means eyes filled with no clarity and clear emotions. It means your eyes lack emotion.

Skin’s paper-thin means fragile skin. Fragile skins tear easily.

Hanging by a thread means a situation that is near to death or failure.

Drink it all away means consuming alcohol in excess in other to forget about your worries or problems

To be tired of oneself means you are tired of the things you used to do and probably desire to try out something new

Cry Your Heart Out Lyrics by Adele

Chorus

Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

Verse 1

 When I walk in a room, I’m invisible

 I feel like a ghost (Uh! Uh! )

 All my friends keep on telling me 

 That this feeling won’t last.

 Hmm! Hmm!

 I can’t get no relief, I’m so tired of myself

 I swear I’m dead in the eyes (Uh! Uh!)

 I have nothing to feel no more

 I can’t even cry (Uh! Uh! Ooh ooh )

Pre-chorus

When will I begin to feel like me again?

I’m hanging by a thread

My skin’s paper-thin, I can’t stop wavering

 I’ve never been more scared

Chorus

 Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

 When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

 Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

 When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

Verse 2

 When I wake up

 I’m afraid of the idea of facing the day

 I would rather stay home on my own

 Drink it all away

 Please stop calling me, it’s exhausting

 There’s really nothing left to say

 I created this storm

 It’s only fair I have to sit in its rain

Pre-chorus

When will I begin to feel like me again?

I’m hanging by a thread

My skin’s paper-thin, I can’t stop wavering

 I’ve never been more scared

Chorus

 Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

 When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

 Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

 When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

Bridge

Oh! Oh! -Oh! -Oh! 

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

All love is devout, no feeling is a waste

 But give it to yourself now before it’s too late

 In the end, it’s just you, stop drowning in wait

 Your love is useless without it

Chorus/Outro

 Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

 When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace

 Cry your heart out, it’ll clean your face

 When you’re in doubt, go at your own pace
