Tina Dickow - Cruel to the Sensitive Kind lyrics

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
