Cruel-Hearted Times Like These

I feel like giving up sometimes I don't know who I am at times Feeling my way through the dark I am singing loud like a lone lark I am rebuilding myself like Noah's mighty ark I feel happier in my shoes, my muse Who knew I'd be giving such news I found someone who cares for me Who loves me sincerely...oh so dearly… It's enough to break the boundaries of shame It's enough to let the floating flames in me tame Life is tough on the ones who try, try, try Life is cruel-hearted and I don't know why Cruel-hearted somewhat like you and I, you and I Back then when we had everything, I can't deny Cruel-hearted people make me want to die, die, die But, I try, try, try to make it alive this time This time, we should try to fly, yes, you and I I feel happier in my shoes, my muse Who knew I'd be giving such news I found someone who cares for me Who loves me sincerely...oh so dearly… It's enough to break the boundaries of shame It's enough to let the floating flames in me tame Life is tough on the ones who try, try, try Life is cruel-hearted and I don't know why I feel like the walls are caving in Ceiling's crumblin' from deep within I want to be released from this chamber of fear I want you and I to get the hell out of here, here, here I feel happier in my shoes, my muse Who knew I'd be giving such news I found someone who cares for me Who loves me sincerely...oh so dearly… It's enough to break the boundaries of shame It's enough to let the floating flames in me tame Life is tough on the ones who try, try, try Life is cruel-hearted and I don't know why I arrive complete, for the war is fought and over with Our lives are made of the finest titanium I do believe You arrive incomplete, for you lost your way in the labyrinth In this battle of the blues, it is hard to fight the urge to grieve I no longer feel like giving up, love I know who I am and what I'm capable of Cruel-hearted times like these Will be gone in a single breeze....
