So Cruel

from Shimmer And Fade by Michael Mastro

/

lyrics

Verse 1:
She don't deserve this, it aint her fault.
And I'm not saying, I don't know, what is on her mind.
She's trying to find her, sensitive side, aint enough what she's been thinking.
She can be so extreme and misunderstood, on and on and always talking.
She's sincere and relatively concerned.
And she wants:

Chorus
Someone who respects what she knows.
Someone who respects what she told them.
Someone who respects what she does.
Wouldn't be so cruel, so cruel.

Verse 2:
She can be so shy, but not right now.
The flowers in her garden grow, in spite of the rain.
She can't deny this, the silence is so insane.
But she can be, fiery eyed and close to the flame, it's hard to tell what's on her mind.
She's sincere and very rarely complains.
And she knows.

Chorus
Someone who respects what she knows.
Someone who respects what she told them
Someone who respects what she does.
Wouldn't be so cruel, so cruel.

Bridge:
She wants me there, it's always the same hotel.
She don't think I know, I'm the only one, patient enough to care.

Chorus
Someone who respects what she knows.
Someone who respects what she told them.
Someone who respects what she does.
Wouldn't be so cruel, so cruel.
So cruel, so cruel.
Wouldn't be so cruel, so cruel.
So cruel, wouldn't be so cruel.
So cruel, so cruel, so ....
