Cruel World - Faye

Oh cruel world

Will you knock me down

Until I’m begging on my knees?

And oh beautiful world

Will you push me

Until I’m soaring with the stars?

Until I’m flying with the birds?

Let me know if I have what it takes

Push me to the point my heart breaks and aches

Remind me what I’m doing this for

Let me go on and fight for more and more

And when I drift away

When I lose my way

My body starts to decay

My body starts to decay

And I put cigarettes in the ash tray

Everything will be okay

Let me know if I have what it takes

Push me to the point my heart breaks and aches

Remind me what I’m doing this for

Let me go on and fight for more and more

When I stand in agony

Absently

And my thoughts turn bitter and angry

Send the cavalry to my balcony

And free me from my insanity

And even though I hurt and I hurt

I will always be a dreamer at heart

And even though we’ve drifted apart

I’m still a dreamer

A dreamer with a heavy heart

Let me know I have what it takes

Push me to the point my heart breaks and aches

Remind me what I’m doing this for

Let me go on and fight for more and more
