Song Meaning of “She Cried for Me” by Benny Joy
The song ‘She Cried for Me’ by Benny Joy tells the story of a man reliving a failed relationship. The protagonist has been left in pieces by his partner and is reflecting upon the time spent together and the shared heartache that ultimately led to their end. He reflects that he wasn’t able to feel his partner’s pain while they were together, but now looking back he sees it clearly. His former lover had hidden her true emotions from him, but now that he is looking back through the lens of hindsight, he can see she had been crying for him all along. He acknowledges that he has been unable to move on as he continuously replays the memories of their relationship in his mind. Ultimately the song conveys the idea that we don’t always recognize the pain of the ones we love until it is too late.
