Beneath These Fireworks

Took your words like you said I should
And look at what good it's done me
I've played support system, you played victim
And look at what good it's done


You trip me up
You leave me standing 
With your awkward
Untouchable lips


It's a cruel world and I've found
It's a cruel world and I'm a lucky boy
It's a cruel world and I've found
It's a cruel world and I am your lucky boy


You're so glorious, a waste of time
And you're the safety in lying
You are radiator heat, you're the winter blanket's sleep
You're the excuse that I use when I want to stop trying


And start waiting 
Start waiting for the sky to fall
They tell me 


It's a cruel world, I've found
It's a cruel world and I'm a lucky boy
It's a cruel world, I've found
It's a cruel world and I'm a lucky boy


And you're not gold to me yeah
'Cause I was wrong
And you're not gold and there'll be
Centuries left when you're gone


Cruel world, I've found
And it's a cruel world and I'm a lucky boy
It's a cruel world and I've found
It's a cruel world and I am your lucky boy


Coming down
Coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down


Cruel world, I've found
And it's a cruel world and I'm a lucky boy
It's a cruel world, yeah, it' a cruel world
Yeah, I'm not coming down
