Cruel World lyrics

Can you hear the wind that's howling

Through the concrete trees

Got you praying on your knees

In the face of danger we're all brave

'Til the gun goes bang, bang, bang

It's a cruel, cruel world

No mercy left, yeah it's a cruel, cruel world

It'll break your heart and burn you down, down, down

Don't ever doubt that it's a cruel, cruel world

Oh it's a cruel, cruel world

Smoke will turn your soul to black

If you let it in

So close the door, confess your sins

Oh, when I was younger, it was on roses

Now they're dead and gone away

It's a cruel, cruel world

No mercy left, yeah it's a cruel, cruel world

It'll break your heart and burn you down, down, down

Don't ever doubt that it's a cruel, cruel world

Oh it's a cruel, cruel world

Oh, can you help me?

Oh, can you help me out?

Don't know who I can trust right now

Oh, can you help me?

Oh, can you help me out?

Oh

It's a cruel, cruel world

It's a cruel, cruel world

No mercy left, yeah it's a cruel, cruel world

It'll break your heart and burn you down, down, down

Don't ever doubt that it's a cruel, cruel world

Oh it's a cruel, cruel world [5x]

(It'll burn you down)
