Kindness Can Be Cruel

If I give my heart It can't be taken away I once met a man who met a man Who once met a woman And he said The one man I meet Will meet with his undoing Like a thoroughbred horse Without remorse Acting like a mule I'll carry you baby Kindness can be cruel I heard of a man who heard of a man Who'd heard from a woman Saying I can't hear what I'm hearing But I hear it's your undoing When carpenters hammer And chisel your glamour I will lend you a tool And carve sculpture Kindness can be cruel Man I knew a man who knew a man Who'd once loved a woman And she said Man I wouldn't know that man Knowing what I know he's doing My best friends Live for their own ends I'd take your bullet in a duel Better I bleed Kindness can be cruel
