Lyrics

Cruel
Lyrics by: Emily Joffee

I believed you when you told me
That you could never dream of leaving me
Then you stole all your words from me
And you took back every kiss you gave
And you justified it all with your rage
And you choked every dream away
And you beat every smile out
And you kicked all our memories down
Oh you blew it you took it you threw it all away

But baby why you gotta be this way
Oh baby after all that we’ve been through
Why you gotta be oh why you gotta be so damn cruel

And you blew all the warmth away
And you stole the home we made
And you broke all the love you gave
Now you stay there acting cool
Hiding behind your pool of friends
Pretend like you don’t care
But you took it you blew it you threw it all away

But baby why you gotta be this way
Oh baby after all that we’ve been through
Why you gotta be oh why you gotta be so damn cruel

And you blew all the warmth away
And you took all the warmth away
And you justified it all with your rage
Oh you justified it all with your rage

But baby why you treat me this way
Oh baby after all that we’ve been through
Why you gotta be oh why you gotta be so damn cruel

Oh baby why you behave this way
Oh baby after all that we’ve been through
Oh baby why you treat me this way
Oh why you gotta be oh why you gotta be
Oh why you gotta be so damn cruel
