Cruel Lyrics by Elle Longstaff

don’t let me go

2023

[Verse 1]
I never asked for too much
I only wanted to be loved by you
Are you that incapable of feeling something
At all (at all)
[Pre-Chorus]
Someday I’ll leave home
And I won’t know you
And I won’t have to
Someday I won’t call
And I’m not sorry
I’ve got no reason to be (no reason to be)
[Chorus]
What happened to you?
I don’t recognise you anymore
Why are you so cruel?
Why don’t you love me anymore?
[Verse 2]
I never did anything
That could make you this angry
With me (no, no)
I just think you’re immature
With all of your scare tactics
Like screaming and slamming doors
[Pre-Chorus]
Someday I’ll leave homе
And I won’t come back
Not for you, no
Someday I’ll get oldеr
I hope you do too
You’re acting like a fool
[Chorus]
What happened to you?
I don’t recognise you anymore
Why are you so cruel?
Why don’t you love me anymore?
[Bridge]
And I can’t stand the way you always get your way
Don’t know how to say I’m not okay
But I will be, cause
[Pre-Chorus]
Someday I’ll leave home
And you won’t know me
And I’ll be happy
[Outro]
I don’t mind it on my own
It’s less scary
Than with you here
