So Cruel
We crossed the line, but who pushed who over? It doesn't matter to you; it matters to me. We're cut adrift, but still floating. I'm only hanging on to watch you go down... My love.
I disappeared in you; you disappeared from me. I gave you everything you ever wanted, but it wasn't what you wanted. The men who love you, you hate the most. They pass right through you like a ghost. They look for you, but your spirit is in the air... Baby, you're nowhere.
Oh, love, you say in love there are no rules. Oh, love... Sweetheart, you're so cruel.
Desperation is a tender trap that gets you every time you put your lips to her lips to stop the lie. Her skin is pale, like God's only dove. It screams like an angel for your love. And then she makes you watch her from above... And you need her like a drug.
Oh, love, you say in love there are no rules. Oh, love... Sweetheart, you're so cruel.
She wears my love like a see-through dress; her lips say one thing, her movement something else... Oh love, like a screaming flower. Love, dying every hour...
You don't know if it's fear or desire; danger, the drug that takes you higher. Heaven heaven, fingers in the mire. Her heart is racing, you can't keep up, and the night is bleeding like a cut; between the horses of love and lust, you get trampled underfoot.
Oh, love, you say in love there are no rules. Oh, love... Sweetheart, you're so cruel. Oh, love... This day with you, I've been a fool.
Sweetheart, you're so cruel.
