It's a cold world, it's a cruel world When you haven't got no one to love And all that poison builds up in your heart Like a cancer killing a dove You gotta stop that life [turning/turn it] upside down You gotta find someone to take care of I say, you're special No one's ever felt this way Life is so lonely When you won't decide to stay Here comes the [cruel/thrill] man [that/but don't] turn around Like a spoke turning on the wheel And it comes and it goes and nobody knows If it's fake or if it's for real When you find someone with a light in their eyes And your heart you know they will steal You say, I'm special No one's ever felt this way Life is so lonely When you won't decide to stay And when it comes to the end of day And you lie sleeping here next to me I look to you, and [some would say/softly say]: Am I dreaming or are you really there? I can't eat, I can't sleep The face [around a fall/a rounded foe] You say, I'm special No one's ever felt this way Life is so lonely When you won't decide to stay You say, you're special No one's ever felt this way Life is so lonely When you won't decide to stay
