So Cruel - Lyrics - U2

U2 are an Irish rock band from Dublin. Formed in 1976, the group consists of Bono , The Edge , Adam Clayton , and Larry Mullen, Jr. . U2's early sound was rooted in post-punk but eventually grew to incorporate influences from many genres of popular music. Throughout the group's musical pursuits, they have maintained a sound built on melodic instrumentals, highlighted by The Edge's timbrally varied guitar sounds and Bono's expressive vocals. Their lyrics, often embellished with spiritual imagery, focus on personal themes and sociopolitical concerns.

We crossed the line Who pushed who over? It doesn't matter to you It matters to me We're cut adrift But still floating I'm only hanging on To watch you go down, my love I disappeared in you You disappeared from me I gave you everything you ever wanted It wasn't what you wanted The men who love you, you hate the most They pass right through you like a ghost They look for you, but your spirit is in the air Baby, you're nowhere Oh love You say in love there are no rules Oh love Sweetheart You're so cruel Desperation is a tender trap It gets you every time You put your lips to her lips To stop the lie Her skin is pale like God's only dove Screams like an angel for your love Then she makes you watch her from above And you need her like a drug Oh love You say in love there are no rules Oh love Sweetheart You're so cruel She wears my love like a see through dress Her lips say one thing Her movements, something else Oh love, like a screaming flower Love Dying every hour And you don't know if it's fear or desire Danger, the drug that takes you higher Head of heaven Fingers in the mire Her heart is racing, you can't keep up The night is bleeding like a cut Between the horses of love and *** we are trampled Underfoot Oh love You say in love there are no rules Oh love Sweetheart You're so cruel Oh love To stay with you, I'd be a fool Oh, sweetheart You're so cruel
