Steve Earle(born January 17, 1955) is a singer-songwriterbest known for his countrymusic and rock 'n roll tinged " alt-country." He is also a published writer, a keen political activist (particularly in protesting against the death penalty in the U.S., as in his song "Ellis Unit One" from the movie Dead Man Walking), and has written and directed a play. Born in Hampton, Virginia, legend has it that a box of Texas dirt, sent by his grandfather, was brought into the delivery room, so that it could be said that the first soil Earle's feet ever touched was Texan. He moved around the U.S. with his parents, before dropping out of school in the 8th grade and heading to Houston, Texas, to explore a career in music. In 1975, he moved to Nashville and worked as a songwriter.

Cry Myself To Sleep Lyrics
Steve Earle
I cried so hard
You know I cant do more
Its a turn of the card
Its a close of the door
The lies you told
You know they hurt so deep
So I go home and cry myself to sleep
Day after day
You been treatin me bad
My friendsll come up and say
Why do you take all of that?
And its makin me moan
And its makin me weep
So I go home and cry myself to sleep
You play at love like a child plays games
One day Im in and then Im out again
You change the rules
I cant win
Youve broken me, now, so Ill give in
You play at love like a child plays games
One day Im in and then Im out again
You change the rules
I cant win
Youve broken me, now, so Ill give in
Well, Ive been through worse
But I dont know what
Joy is just the reverse
Of what Ive got
So take this heart
Or whats left to keep
And I go home and cry myself to sleep
I just go home and cry myself to sleep
I go home and cry myself to sleep
