Cruel World

Cruel World
Say it back
I need to hear you, need your baby back
I play it cool
I miss your kisses on a feedback loop
And now the lights are gettin' low, mirror balls and pheromones
I can be a social hand grenade
Tick-tick-tick-tick boom
And everybody's gettin' close, taking off each other's clothes
I wonder where you are tonight

It's a cruel world without you, baby
It's a cruel world
Sugar, don't you be running away for long, please
Let's catch a movie and get caught in the rain
Wherever you are is my favourite place
It's a cruel world without you, baby
So sad
You're playin' shows, I'm comatose in my bed
(Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
And I'll be going out tonight
I don't know what else to do with myself
We'll be more than lovers holding tight under ultraviolet light
Before I kill the buzz and I
Curl-curl-curl up and die
Everybody's gettin' close, taking off each other's clothes
I wonder where you are tonight
And it's a cruel world without you, baby
It's a cruel world
No, sugar, don't you be running away for long, please
We're hand in hand as the band starts to play
Wherever you are is my favourite place
And it's a cruel world without you, baby
It's a cruel world without your arms around me
Need you close to me, close to me
How am I supposed to breathe without you, babe?
I need you touching me, touching me

It's a cruel world without you, baby, oh, yeah
It's a cruel world
Sugar, don't you be running away for long, please
Take off your shoes and sit around for a change
It could be real cute if this time you stay
It's a cruel world without you, baby
It's a cruel world without your arms around me
Need you close to me, close to me
(Hey, yeah-yeah-yeah, hey, yeah-yeah-yeah)
(It's a real cruel world, baby)
How am I supposed to breathe without you, babe?
(It's a cruel, cruel world)
