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 can't seem to find no peace anymore
I'll come out of this, out of this
Everywhere I turn there seems to be another war
We'll come out of this, out of this
Nothing's gone right
I'm at my wit's end
I swear I'll come out of this, out of this
You're losing your mind
No hope in sight
Promise you out of this
Like the wind in the trees
A cool summer breeze
Like the curls in your hair
Everyone stares at
The hole in the wall
It's all in your head
There's a memory there
All through night
Tried being cruel
It's just not in me, it's just not in you
Oh, tried being cruel
It's just not in me, it's just not in you
It's just not in me
Now that we've come to the end
Find that we're right where we began
Now that we've come to the end
Find that we're right where we began
Now that we've come to the end
Find that we're right where we began
Now that we've come to the end
Find that we're right where we began
Tried being cruel
It's just not in me, it's just not in you
Oh, tried being cruel
It's just not in me, it's just not in you
Oh, tried being cruel
It's just not in me, it's just not in you
Oh, tried being cruel
It's just not in me, it's just not in you
It's just not in me
