Holly Humberstone - Cruel World (Lyrics)

In “Cruel World,” Holly Humberstone tells the story of someone trying to distract themselves after a breakup or distance in a relationship, but nothing really works. They go out, surround themselves with people, parties, and noise—but their mind keeps looping back to one person.
