Track 6: “First You Cry”
I am blogging through the weekend, because I started this thing, and I am not a quitter – except for when it comes to dieting. And Type From Home. “First You Cry” This world is totally screwed up. It’s a place where men leave their wives, where husbands and fathers have to be taken off…
