[Verse 1: Ollie Baxxter]
I tried to run, but still you found the truth
'Cause it always leads me here right back to you
Broke another promise, but you still refuse
To watch me sink, why won’t you let me lose?
Underneath all our problems
Feeling like we just can’t solve ‘em
Take all the rage, all the pain
Turn the page, start today
And even if you’re at the bottom
Feeling like you’ve been forgotten
Take all the rage, all the pain
Burn the page, start today
[Chorus: Ollie Baxxter]
This world is cruеl, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruеl
If you got something to lose
If you got something to prove
This world is cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
Face-to-face with the truth
Darkness always takes you head on
[Verse 2: Ollie Baxxter, Brian Butcher, Both]
Now call me Tony Danza
Everybody throw hands up feels like I got nothing
Yeah, I think I need an angel
I know you feel low
You’ve been down this bad before, okay
And even still up on my best days
I start to crumble like an earthquake, oh
I think I made another mistake
And now I gotta push the pain away
This head of mine feelin broken and shattered
But how you rebuild is all that matters
[Chorus: Ollie Baxxter]
This world is cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
If you got something to lose
If you got something to prove
This world is cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
Face-to-face with the truth
Darkness always takes you head on
[Bridge: Ollie Baxxter]
Teach me how love
Teach me how love myself
Teach me how to love
Teach me how to not destroy myself
[Chorus: Ollie Baxxter, Brian Butcher]
This world is cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
If you got something to lose
(If you got something to lose)
If you got something to prove (Prove)
This world is cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
Face-to-face with the truth
(Face-to-face with the truth)
Darkness always takes you head on
[Outro]
Cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
If you got something to lose
This world is cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel
Face-to-face with the truth
Darkness always takes you head on
