Crywank are a three-piece DIY folk band from Manchester, England. They focus mostly on sad songs.
Crywank started in 2009 with James Clayton attempting to do some folk-punk influenced acoustic music with no previous experience playing guitar. The first album "James is going to die soon" was inspired by a painful break up. James stated that "I wrote these songs out of frustration and sadness and they ended up making me feel a lot better, I hope they have a similar effect on you".

Am I don't want to be awake again F I spend my days with my head in my hands CG If I go outside I'll fall apart Am I am mostly scared by passing time F The world it seems gets more unkind CG Inevitable tragedies will soon be mine AmFCG Oooh Ooooh Am I am looking for an easy place F To mask my thoughts behind my face CG Oh brown-baked column of victory AmF Maybe I should just pack up and run away again CG Let you forget that you were once my friend AmF Then watch another go on and do better without me AmFCG Oooh Ooooh Am But I could not go away not if I wanted to F I can hide from friends but I cannot hide from you C These chemical reactions are dividing me G Self-deprecating thoughts interrupting all the time Am Emphasizing all the traits that I wish weren't mine FG They speak louder than everybody Am Try to keep my eyes closed as my outlook isn't bright F Compulsively complaining when I haven't got the right C I hate the way that I think and act G I want to end reality but I feel hesitant Am Optimistic that the future will be more concerned than the present FCmaj7 And so for today I'll remain intact AmFCG Oooh Ooooh Am I don't want to be awake again F I spend my days with my head in my hands CG If I go outside I'll fall apart
