Cruel World

It's a cruel, cruel world It's a cruel, cruel world I see a man who's broken By a world that simply chose him To be the voice of those unspoken Falling down, he keeps falling down He can't seem to catch a break He's in a pit with all the snakes He's not asleep he's wide awake Falling down, he keeps falling down He thought he'd die by now He's at an all-time low He thought he'd die by now He's putting on a show He thought he'd die by now He knows it's all a faux He thought he'd die by now His life is full of woe All alone tonight This great cruel world This great cruel world All alone tonight This great cruel world This great cruel world I see a girl who's all alone She's screaming at her telephone She's shouting things in awful tones Falling down, she keeps falling down A little tear runs down her face She's in a heavy kind of place Her mental state's in outer space Falling down, she keeps falling down She thought she'd die by now She's at an all-time low She thought she'd die by now She's putting on a show She thought she'd die by now She knows it's all a faux She thought she'd die by now Her life is full of woe All alone tonight This great cruel world This great cruel world All alone tonight This great cruel world This great cruel world Did they lose their prime? Fall on back restart the time Did they lose their prime? Fall on back restart the time All alone tonight This great cruel world This great cruel world All alone tonight This great cruel world This great cruel world
