Cruel World

(album: Soul Power - 2014)

I could walk through the desert without no rain
I could swim through the death and live again
I could stand in one place just like a stone
But if I didn't have you I wouldn't last long

It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in

Yesterday she left me, she should have kept me, now I know
No one out there should ever feel this way, no
Champagne is my only friend [?]
Lord, why did it end?
No matter how much I try, still can't find a solution

It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in

Now when she claps her hands and stomps her feet
I swear the way that she smiles it makes me bleed
Now I'm soaking on the sand, I'm living on the sea
When she walks out the door just leaving me be

My friends say I'm crazy, I'm getting too lazy
But they don't understand
They never lived in this house of pain, oh no no
I only go out at night, knowing something just ain't right
I need someone to just come in and intervene

I can walk throught the desert without no rain
I can swim through the death and live again
I can stand in one place just like a stone
But if I didn't have you I wouldn't last long

It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in

Now when she claps her hands and stomps her feet
I swear the way that she smiles it makes me bleed
Now I'm soaking on the sand, I'm living on the sea
When she walks out the door just leaving me be

It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
