Cruel - Dropkick Murphys

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 climb

They were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mine

I 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 defied

They were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mine

The 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 eye

They were crazy, they were mine

They were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mine

They were cruel, they were ignorant

They were beauty, they were kind

They were patience, they were virtue

They were crazy, they were mine

The 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

Siamo nati nel nulla, duramente per così dire

Ma l'amore e l'affetto che questa famiglia mi ha offerto Le preoccupazioni sono arrivate presto e spesso sembravano

Il destino non è stato piacevole, tuttavia sono stato redento

Poi la compassione svanì presto nel caos

Poiché hanno fatto del loro meglio per tutto il tempo

Quando le circostanze prevalgono sull'intenzione

A volte la montagna è semplicemente troppo difficile da scalare

Erano crudeli, erano ignoranti

Erano belle, erano gentili

Erano pazienza, erano virtù

Erano pazzi, erano miei

Ero giovane e pensavo di sapere tutto

È così difficile cambiare idea a uno stupido

Quando sei testardo per natura e veloce al sorteggio

E sei pieno di orgoglio ereditato

Ma alcune lezioni vengono più difficili di altre

E alcuni sensi sono più difficili da trovare

I tuoi problemi non finiranno quando sarai salvato dalla campana

Risponderai comunque a coloro che hai sfidato

Erano crudeli, erano ignoranti

Erano belle, erano gentili

Erano pazienza, erano virtù

Erano pazzi, erano miei

I cieli potrebbero cantare le tue lodi

Ma i cieli non pagheranno per le tue bugie

I peccatori potrebbero pregare per i tuoi problemi

Ma i peccatori non ti guarderanno negli occhi

Erano pazzi, erano miei

Erano crudeli, erano ignoranti

Erano belle, erano gentili

Erano pazienza, erano virtù

Erano pazzi, erano miei

Erano crudeli, erano ignoranti

Erano belle, erano gentili

Erano pazienza, erano virtù

Erano pazzi, erano miei

I cieli potrebbero cantare le tue lodi

Ma i cieli non pregheranno per le tue bugie

I peccatori potrebbero pagare per i tuoi problemi

Ma il peccatore non ti guarderà negli occhi
