Cruel (Live At Fenway Park)

We were born into nothing, hard up so to speak

But love and affection this family afforded me

Worries came early and often it seemed

Fate was not pleasant still I was redeemed

Then compassion soon faded to chaos

As they did their best all the while

When circumstance outweighs intention

Sometimes the mountain's just too hard to climbThey were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mineI was young and I thought I knew everything

It's so hard to change a fool's mind

When you're stubborn by nature and quick to the draw

And you're full of inherited pride

But some lessons come harder than others

And some senses are harder to find

Your troubles won't end when you're saved by the bell

You'll still answer to those you defiedThey were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mineThe heavens might sing out your praises

But the heavens won't pay for your lies

The sinners might pray for your problems

But the sinners won't look in your eyeThey were crazy, they were mineThey were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mineThe heavens might sing out your praises

But the heavens won't pray for your lies

The sinners might pay for your problems

But the sinner won't look in your eye
