So cruel this world, a heart of stone,
Alas, we knew it not, alone.
So cruel this world, a heart of stone,
Alas, we knew it not, alone.
For loyalty, they'll offer scorn,
For loyalty, a heart forlorn,
Promising love, a treacherous lie,
Promising love, beneath a weeping sky.
Alas, we knew it not, the pain,
So cruel this world, a hurricane.
Alas, we knew it not, again.
Tears, our reward for love's embrace,
Poison they'll pour, in beauty's place.
On lightning's flash, our home we build,
On lightning's flash, where hopes are killed.
Alas, we knew it not, the end,
So cruel this world, no faithful friend.
Alas, we knew it not, the fall,
Alas, we knew it not, the call,
So cruel this world, encompassing all.
Alas, we knew it not, the thrall.
