Lyrics

I've been burned by a cold empty fire
I've been turned, I've been led astray
But you learn when you deal with a liar
It's a cold, cold world, cold world
When it's your friends, yes
I've been taken down a blind street
I've been shaken and I've been led astray
You awaken with a bad, bad feelin'
It's a cold, cold world, cold world
When it's your friends, yes, it was
You might listen, you might not, it don't bother me
You won't know till the time catches up with you
How close I'm watching you
Feel like dirt, they've taken my pride
And what's worse, I've been so betrayed
And it hurts you, man, it hurts you deep down inside
It's a cold, cold world, cold world
When it's your friends, yes, it is
You know that trust is so hard to give
But you must or you're gonna live alone
When you're dust it just should not be
That it was a cold, cold world, cold world
Cold, cold world, cold world
Cold, cold world, cold world in the end
