Cruel Lyrics

What you've got

 You had to steal

 That's the reason

 For how you feel

 Considering what

 You've done so far

 I'm rather amazed

 At where you are 

 

 Lift your head up babe

 Pull yourself together

 Nothing's worse than dying slow

 There's no reason darling

 Reason whatsoever

 That we can't end this game of touch and go 

 

 It's such a cruel world

 When you have to think twice,

 And you're caught up in this roundabout

 It's such a cruel world

 When your back's against the wall 

 And there's no way out 

 

 You're not giving it up,

 But you're giving it out

 Seems to me,

 You got a little too much doubt

 Augmentation,

 Is what you need

 Your generosity

 Looks alot like greed 

 

 You might call me crazy

 If you don't understand it

 There's no way for you to know

 You say love is hazy,

 And you don't demand it

 Can't we end this game of touch and go 

 

 It's such a cruel world

 When nothing goes right

 And the plans you made

 Start falling 'round you

 It's such a cruel world

 Well, just throw me the rope babe

 And pull me out 

 

 You've got that kind of love

 It flows like a fountain

 But sometimes love can be unkind

 My kind of love you know

 It's higher than a mountain

 But love can be so hard to find 

 

 Lift your head up babe

 Pull yourself together

 Nothing's worse than dying slow

 There's no reason, darling

 Reason whatsoever

 That we can't end this game of touch and go 

 

 It's such a cruel world

 When you have to think twice

 And you're caught up in this roundabout

 It's such a cruel world

 When your back's against the wall and there's no way out 

 

 It's such a cruel world

 It's such a cruel world out there baby

 It's such a cruel world

 It's such a cruel cruel world and there's no way out

 

 What love

 Get you right

 Wanna get you right

 

 Oh I - I see darkness in your future babe

 Oh I - It's a tunnel black as night

 Oh I - See a rich man with his hand out babe

 Oh I - Know a seer with no sight

 Oh I - Watch fire burn those bridges babe

 Oh I - Feel wrong turn into right 

 Oh I - Yeah

 Oh I - Do you understand me babe

 Oh I - Ooh
