Olivia Rodrigo
Cruel
[Intro]
It's ridiculous
I don't understand how
It can always be my fault
It's just
Oh fuck it

[Verse 1]
Hurting myself is so fun and
Telling my friends that I'm fucked up
And I'm so caught up in the drama
Of who likes me and who hates you
And I'm so tired that I might
Quit my job, start a new life
And they'd all be so disappointed
'Cause I'm the boy that they exploited
And I'm so sick of fifteen
I don't have a teenage dream
If someone tells me one more time
"Enjoy your youth," I'm gonna cry
And I wish I was someone else
I'm anxious, and no one can help
And I wish I'd done this before
And I wish people likеd me more

[Chorus]
All I did was try my best
This thе kinda thanks I get?
Unrelentlessly upset (Ah-ah-ah)
They say these are the golden years
But I wish I could disappear
Ego crush is so severe
God, it's cruel out here

[Post-Chorus]
(Yeah)

[Verse 2]
I feel like no one loves me
And I hate the way I'm judged
I only have two real friends
And lately, I'm a nervous wreck
'Cause I love people I don't like
And I hate every song I write
And I'm not cool, and I'm not pretty
And I can't even keep a boyfriend

[Chorus]
All I did was try my best
This the kinda thanks I get?
Unrelentlessly upset (Ah-ah-ah)
They say these are the golden years
But I wish I could disappear
Ego crush is so severe
God, it's cruel out here
[Post-Chorus]
(Yeah)
(Just havin' a really good time)

[Outro]
Poking out my hearts with pins and needles
And God, I love you so much
It's fucking cruel
