Lyrics
Love is cruel; ever changing, ever changing. Yes, but true. And I am too. Yes, love. I'm leaving you, 'cause I'm... cruel... in my blackend heart, blackened heart, in my blackened heart! Time is cruel. It tears the heart and mind in two. And I've been a fool. Yes, love. Now I have to choose, and I'm... Cruel, in my blackend heart, In the careless way I pierce you through and through. Cruel, in my deadly art, (my deadly heart), in the way I made a monster out of you! La da la di da da ti da... Cruel, cruel in my blackend heart! Cruel, cruel, in my deadly art! I'm Cruel! Love is cruel, and nothing less than this can save you.
