Cruel Lyrics

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Tell a lie, tell a lie that makes me want to stay
Give me something out of nothing, if it's not too late
If it's real, if it's real, I guess I'll feel the pain
Come in closer, out of focus

Oh, and it's hard to
It's hard to love someone who can't be loved (can't be loved, can't be loved)
But it's what you do, it's what you do

Baby, you're so cruel, you're so cruel (you're so cruel)
'Cause you got me bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)
This love I can't undo, can't undo (can't undo)
'Cause you got me bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)

Ah (ah-ah-ah-a-ah-ah-ah)
Ah (ah-ah-ah-a-ah-ah-ah)
Losing me, carelessly, you sacrifice
Give me something out of nothing, if it's not too late
Did you steal or borrow me, it's on my life
Come in closer, out of focus

Oh, and it's hard to
It's hard to love someone who can't be loved (can't be loved, can't be loved)
But it's what you do, it's what you do

Baby, you're so cruel, you're so cruel (so cruel)
'Cause you got me bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)
This love I can't undo, can't undo (can't undo)
'Cause you got me bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)

All I do is pray and it's keeping me awake
When I try to leave, I think that you need me
Do you?
Baby, you're so cruel, you're so cruel
But I'm still bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)

There's a line that pulls me back to you
There's only so much I can do
A bind that holds the spark
Wrapped around my heart
There's only so much I can do
When you got me bound to you

Baby, you're so cruel, you're so cruel (you're so cruel)
'Cause you got me bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)
This love I can't undo, can't undo (can't undo)
'Cause you got me bound to you, bound to you (bound to you)

All I do is pray and it's keeping me awake
When I try to leave, I think that you need me
Do you?
Baby, you're so cruel, you're so cruel
But I'm still bound to you, bound to you

I'm still bound to you, bound to you
I'm still bound to you (ah)
I'm still bound to you (ah)
I'm still bound to you (ah)

What is the Meaning of Cruel?

Delving into the complex labyrinth of love and heartache, this poignant melody paints a picture of an individual ensnared in a toxic relationship. The protagonist is emotionally tethered to her lover, despite his cruelty and indifference. She yearns for reciprocation but is met with cold-hearted manipulation instead. Her pleas for validation are ignored, leaving her dangling on the precipice of despair. Yet, she remains bound to him; a testament to the power such relationships wield over their victims. The song serves as a stark reminder that love can sometimes be a double-edged sword, capable of both healing and harm. It echoes the silent cries of those trapped in the vicious cycle of emotional abuse, offering them solace through its hauntingly beautiful melody and lyrics.
