Cruel World

Oh cruel world Will you knock me down til I’m begging on my knees Oh beautiful world Will you push me until I’m soaring with the stars, until I’m flying with the birds Let me know I have what it takes Push me to the point my heart breaks and aches Remind me what I’m doing this for Let me go on and fight for more and more And when I drift away, when I lose my way And my body starts to decay, my body starts decay And I pile cigarettes in the ashtray And everything will be okay Let me know I have what it takes Push me to the point my heart breaks and aches Remind me what I’m doing this for Let me go on and fight for more and more And when I stand in agony absently And my thoughts turn bitter and angry Send the cavalry to my balcony Free me from my insanity Even though I hurt and I hurt I will always be a dreamer at heart Even though we’ve drifted apart I’m still a dreamer, a dreamer with a heavy heart Let me know I have what it takes Push me to the point my heart breaks and aches Remind me what I’m doing this for Let me go on and fight for more and more
