Cruel - Live

What you've got you had to steal
That's the reason for how you feel, yeah
Considering what you've done so far
I'm rather amazed at where you are

Lift your head up, baby, pull yourself together
Nothing's worse than dyin' slow
There's no reason, darlin', reason whatsoever
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 givin' it up, but you're givin' it out
Seems to me, you got a little too much doubt
Augmentation is what you need
Your generosity looks a lot 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 fallin' 'round you
It's such a cruel world
Well, just throw me the rope, baby
And pull me out, yeah

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, baby, pull yourself together
Nothing's worse than dyin' slow
There's no reason, darlin', 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, yeah

It's such a cruel world, hey, hey
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, yeah

Yeah, whoo
Mm-mm
What love gets you right?
Wanna get you right

(Oh, I) see darkness in your future, baby
(Oh, I) it's a tunnel, black as night
(Oh, I) see a rich man with his hand out, baby
(Oh, I) know a seer with no sight
(Oh, I) watch fire burn those bridges, baby
(Oh, I) I feel wrong turn into right
(Oh, I) yeah
(Oh, I) do you understand me, baby?
(Oh, I) ooh
