Lyrics
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.
Untie my hands, you're the best that I've had.
Close to the drains and the sewers in flow
Hold back from anger and freeze all your soul.
Dive through the circle, describe what you hold
Cruel
Drink and dissolve through the lines in your hands.
Write out of romance (the sugar in sand)
I failed when I tried to defend in my way.
Walked from the gaze of a dog of a day
Cruel
I find when things are mine
like cold chains and baby whines
Well, Henry says, yeah, Henry says
"It's Sue and I"
Crawl, and watch your knes!
Slide low, through any sleeze
and money says, yeah, money says
"You've got to do it slow"
Cruel
My theme is; loose the plot
fuck around and drink a lot
and Henry says, yeah Henry says
"Do it wrong"
But I don't think this way
and I would never say
I've done the best I could
Cruel
