Cruel

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I ain't gonna lie

You've been on my mind

I know that it's gonna take some getting used to

And I ain't gonna front

Thought you were the one

Never would've guessed that you would fall through

Baby cause

Each time I tried girl

You made an excuse

Just tryna avoid it

And hidin' the truth

See you would rather run away from it

I just wanted you to say something

Still can't believe you'd do me

Like this

How could you take him to

All the places I used to take you to

I thought you were someone else

Instead you leave me hanging alone by myself

I never thought I'd see the day that you'd be so cruel

Why you playin' games

Wish it was the same

Probably never gonna be what it used to

But I am gonna stress

When there's nothin' left

You gon' up and leave actin' all brand new

Lady cause

Each time I tried girl

You made an excuse

Just tryna avoid it

And hidin' the truth

See you would rather run away from it

I just wanted you to say something

Still can't believe you'd do me

Like this

How could you take him to

All the places I used to take you to

I thought you were someone else

Instead you leave me hanging alone by myself

I never thought I'd see the day that you'd be so cruel

And I don't wanna make things complicated

Gotta let you know all of this time

I can't get back from you

I'm someone you'll just get over again

I'm tryin' hard to move on

But how could you take him to

All the places I used to take you to

I thought you were someone else

Instead you leave me hanging alone by myself

I never thought I'd see the day that you'd be so cruel

But how could you take him to (girl how can you take him to)

All the places I used to take you to

I thought you were someone else (I thought you were the one for me)

Instead you leave me hanging alone by myself (Instead you leave me all alone)

I never thought I'd see the day that you'd be so cruel
