The Veronicas – Cruel lyrics
Wish I could say you're not the one
My heart hangs on, you're having fun
We can't be lovers and we can't be friends
But I still want you and I can't pretend
It fucking kills me that we're done

A little twist of the knife, yeah
A little salt in the cut, yeah
A little thorn in the side
And it stings like hell

Feels so cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you're looking like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter

Cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you know me like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter

I'm making out like I don't care
But in her sleep, I've cut her hair
We can't be lovers and we can't be friends
But I still want you and I can't pretend
The way it hurts, it's just not fair

A little twist of the knife, yeah
A little salt in the cut, yeah
A little thorn in the side
And it stings like hell

Feels so cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you're looking like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter

Cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you know me like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter

Once upon a time I thought that we were going strong
What we had would never move, no it would never fall down
No, I've never been so wrong
No, I've never been so wrong

Once upon a time I used to dream I'd be your wife
I could hear the bells would ring and I was dressed in white
No, I've never been so wrong
No, I've never been so wrong

A little twist of the knife...

Feels so cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you're looking like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter

Cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you know me like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter

Feels so cruel, the way you treat me like a stranger
Cruel, when you're looking like that, oh
Cruel, the way you touch her when you kiss her
Take my endless summer turn it into winter
You're so cruel
