Charlie Lim Nothing More Cruel song lyrics

Darling I've been trembling from your love all this time

Even when the ashes have faded it'll be on my mind

I'm not praying for a miracle to get me by

There's nothing more cruel

When the words are baited like a victimless crime

Am I growing up too fast

Or did I have it easy all this time

Was I paying the cost

Being cast in a role with no reprise

When all my fear surrounds me

Come on cut through the bone so I can see

The weariness I live in

From trying way too hard to make believe

Darling I've been trembling from your love all this time

Even when the ashes have faded it'll be on my mind

I'm not praying for a miracle to get me by

There's nothing more cruel

When the words are baited like a victimless crime

When cowardice is medicine

Have we been wired to feed off jealousy

Addicted to the turbulence

Darling I've been trembling from your love all this time

Even when the ashes have faded it'll be on my mind

I'm not praying for a miracle to get me by

There's nothing more cruel

When the words are baited like a victimless crime

So this is what we do to the ones we love;

Was it better to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission?

Passion is poison, and success

Will take a man where his character cannot sustain him

If true love takes true independence

Then there is no method to this madness

Blind faith and childish reason

When the body cries, the spirit listens

Nightmares and nosebleeds

You're the actor and the audience

Blow by blow, frame by frame

Silence begets silence
