Carpet out from underneath
I'm waiting for the ground to hit
Yes, I'm really coming clean
I let him in, oh I let him in
I took to an arrow
Shot him through the chest
Listened to him bellow
Now look at all this mess
He wanted me to feel the pain
I put him through, I put him through
Both half alive and so afraid
Of what we'll do, what we'll do -next
Why are lovers so cruel?
Why are lovers so cruel?
Anchors strapped to my chest
Withholding breaths I already lack
A dying love that can't be put to rest
Cause you keep coming back, oh you keep coming back
He wanted me to feel the pain
I put him through, I put him through
Both half alive and so afraid
Of what we'll do, what we'll do -next
Why are lovers so cruel?
Why are lovers so cruel?
It's not all my fault
I kept dodging your stones
Then I threw one right back
Now we're both all alone
Broken and bleeding
Angry and all
My spite was quite bitter
Your lies were so tall
Oh-oh why are lovers so cruel?
Oh-oh why are lovers so cruel?
Oh-oh why are lovers so cruel?
