lyrics

Many days in strange devotion
Teenage Angst has served us well
Many bloods be soon discovered
Conquer past time blasphemies

Each desire is not a new one
Magazines the left wing wrote
Cradle days and bruising patches
Not to leave the blame with you

Well

You're cruel
So cruel
You're so cruel

Feel the mess we shall uncover
Pages turning, severed youth
Everyone will be the same one
Filling cages in your zoo

Well

You're cruel
So cruel
You're so cruel

Lifting steps to turn the stiff stones
Minor bombings clean the wells
You're shifting gears to leave me lonely
I feel the gripping of the noose

Well

You're cruel
So cruel
You're so cruel
