Cruel & Tender

written by Nastja Sittig 

What are you doing
What are you doing to my heart?
Why don’t you take it
Why don’t you take it and tear it apart?
Cause I can’t take no more
What are you waiting for?
Just - do it
Your insecurity is slowly killing me
 
Cruel and tender
Shall I surrender to you?
You got me shaking
My will is breaking for you
 
You are the angel
You are the angel that I dread
Your voice is sizzling
Your voice is sizzling in my head
I know that I’m no good
There are things that I shouldn’t do
Here’s your hand at my throat
You know I will devote to you
 
Cruel and tender
Shall I surrender to you?
You got me shaking
My will is breaking for you
 
Why are you torturing me?
Why don’t you set me free?
I guess it’s up to me
Shrouded in legend
State of emergency
 
The night is falling
The night is falling heavy and dark
Tried to extinguish
Tried to extinguish the last spark
But I can’t help myself
I guess that you got me good
I guess you got me good
And you always knew you could
 
I’m begging you – please
Please…
Release me
