[Pre-Chorus]
I could walk through the desert without no rain
I could swim through death and live again
I could stand in one place just like a stone
But if I didn't have you I wouldn't last long

[Chorus]
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in

[Verse 1]
Yesterday she left me she should have kept me
Now I know
No one out there should ever feel this way, no
Champagne is my only friend [...]
Lord why did it end?
No matter how much I try, still can't find a solution

[Chorus]
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in

[Bridge]
Now when she claps my hands and stomps her feet
I swear the smiles it makes me bleed
Now I'm soaking on the sand, I'm living on the sea
When she walks out the door it [...] me

[Verse 2]
My friends say I'm crazy, I'm getting too crazy
But they don't understand
They never lived in this house of pain, oh no no
I only go out at night, knowing something just ain't right
I need someone to just come in and intervene

[Pre-Chorus]
I can walk throught the desert without no rain
I can swim through death and live again
I can stand in one place just like a stone
But if I didn't have you I wouldn't last long

[Chorus]
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
[Bridge]
Now when she claps my hands and stomps her feet
I swear the smiles it makes me bleed
Now I'm soaking on the sand, I'm living on the sea
When she walks out the door it [...] me

[Chorus]
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
It's a cruel, cruel world that we're living in
