I'm outside your window, I'm outside your door
You've never been this lonely
Well I've never been this down before and it shows
Killing me so gently, hands wrapped round my throat
Choking me so slowly, slicing every word down to the bon
Cause you can be so cruel
And that's all I've ever known
Cruel
Look outside your window, look outside your door
Wake you when you're sleeping
Cause I've never been this down before and it shows
No I've never been this down before
Cause you can be so cruel
And that's all I've ever known
Cruel
Yeah, you can be so cruel
And that's all you've ever done
Cruel
