Cruel to the Sensitive Kind (Acoustic)

When my patience has stormed out the door

When my confidence is up against the wall

When my nails're all bitten down and not one second before

That's when you call

That's when you call

When my head hurts all the way into every strain of my hair

When your absence hangs like a threat in the air

When it seems so clear that you really do not care

Suddenly you call

Suddenly you call

What are my weapons?

I can't compete?

When all I get points for

Is to smile and be sweet

My iron gate closes

But you never notice

This war in my mind

Love is cruel to the sensitive kind

When the moment has gone tired and cold

When the silence is out of control

When I've said the stupidest things to try and fill this bottomless hole

Finally you speak

Finally you speak

What are my weapons?

I can't compete?

When all I get points for

Is to smile and be sweet

My iron gate closes

But you don't even notice

There's a war in my mind

Love is cruel to the sensitive kind
