It's a cruel cruel world to face on your own
A heavy cross to carry alone
The lights are on, but everyone's gone
And it's cruel

It's a funny way to make ends meet
When the lights are out on every street
It feels alright, but never complete
Without you

I trust you, if it's already been done, undo it
It takes two, it's up to me and you to prove it
All the rainy nights, even the coldest days
You're moments ago but seconds away

The principal of Nature, it's true but
It's a cruel world (x2)

Ooh

We can play it safe or play it cool
Follow the leader or make up all the rules
Whatever you want, the choice is yours
So choose

I trust you, if it's already been done, undo it
It takes two, it's up to me and you to prove it
All the rainy nights, even the coldest days
You're moments ago but seconds away

The principal of Nature, it's true but
It's a cruel cruel world

I trust you, if it's already been done, undo it
It takes two, it's up to me and you to prove it
All the rainy nights, even the coldest days
You're moments ago but seconds away

The principal of Nature, it's true but
It's a cruel cruel world
Hmm it's a cruel world
It's a cruel world
