I know the penny will drop
The mask will slip, the music will stop
There are tears on the microphone, i’m so afraid
If i get found out, do i still get paid?
I walk the line on the great divide
Between selling my soul and losing my pride
And i got wounds that never will heal
’cause the cruellest cuts, you never even feel
I’m circling ’round the drain
I’m circling ’round the room
I never mind the pain
Yes, but i just can’t seem to close these wounds
And ooh, baby, it’s the cruellest cut
You only want what you ain’t got
You say you’re happy, but i know you’re not
Ooh, baby, it’s the cruellest cut
Here, well, i’m walking with the dick swagger back to your car
That’s how i’m livin’, honey, behind bars
And i got a woman, she’s a real wildflower
Blooms by night, paid by the hour
I crush a vicodin into my sprite
One more song and then i’m it for the night
But sometimes i just lie here, screaming in the dark
The cruellest cuts never leave a mark
Oh, tell me you feel free
I see it in your eyes
You don’t think much of me
If you think i’d really fall for your disguise
Ooh, baby, it’s the cruellest cut
You only want what you ain’t got
You say you’re happy, but i know you’re not
Ooh, baby, ooh, it’s the cruellest cut
You see me in the lights, up on the stage
Blinded by emptiness and hollowed by rage
Crippled by the company that i keep
The cruellest cuts, they run so deep
Well, should i lay it all out, or keep it inside?
That’s {?} {?}, or suicide
I thought i was an outlaw, but i’m not
Ooh, babe, ain’t that the cruellest cut?
Ooh, baby, it’s the cruellest cut
My face is a knot, my nerves are shot
There ain’t a name for this sickness i got
Ooh, baby, ooh, it’s the cruellest cut, oh-oh
It’s the cruellest cut, alright
Oh, it’s the cruellest cut, oh-oh
Ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, the cruellest cut, babe, it’s how you feel
It’s the rolling wheel, it’s the {?}
It’s the way that i feel, it’s the {?}
It’s the cruellest cut, cruellest cut
