Active Child - Cruel World

New Single 'Cruel World' written and produced by Active Child

Lyrics :

I dedicate my life to something richer
and all the things that come
cuz thats no price at all
and I know you'll be there
and i want you to know I care because

keep your head up, hold your head up even though
its a cruel world
count your blessing you won't need them when you're gone
its a cruel world
you can't see it you can't see it even though
its a cruel world

we're thrown into this life no raft no savior
masked in self contempt and wrapped in cotton cloth
and its just like a prayer
the way you showed me you care to be there and because

keep your head up, hold your head up even though
its a cruel world
count your blessing you won't need them when you're gone
its a cruel world
you can't see it you can't see it even though
its a cruel world

[Knives]

A minor mending that fixes a mirror ironically shatters our collective hearts.

[redsocket]

"Take her. Do it. Now."
"What are you doing?!"
"Just minor mending."

Goodbye Q.

[DanishAnton]

Alice's glasses reflecting Quentin's death is an incredible piece of art.

[LeDayz]

As soon as this came on I knew he wasn't going to make it and I was going to have to find this song. RIP Curly Q.

[Marcelo-ohzc]

I was sad when Penny died, but losing Q really got me in tears😢 🖤

[iAmazingGraphics]

*Here after Quentin's epic sacrifice on The Magicians, we will miss you, Quentin Coldwater.*

[hunterhall]

It touches my heart to see so many mourning magicians in the comments.
RIP Q. Coldwater. And RIP all the Quentins we lost in our real lives.

[ArsDeicidium]

Never cried in a movie or TV show til that season 4 finale. Quentin was the character I could relate to with his mental issues and insecurities. Never thought I'd miss a fictional character as much as I already do. Great piece of music for the scene.

A Cruel World indeed.

The Magicians got all these fans here including me

[amyw]

Magicians fan here. I’ll just sit here and cry now.

[solomonv.padilla]

Active Child has to be one of most underrated musicians of our time.

[christiankelley]

A beautiful song for a beautiful episode, belonging to a breathtaking and beautiful season of the Magicians, sending off a beautiful and beloved character. We’ll always love and remember you Quentin Coldwater
#Magicians

[MrRobot_]

All the feels in the magicians finale man that slow mo had me feeling the whole time

[carindahardison]

The Magicians got me all emotional and shit...😓😪

[jasoneastman]

Wow. The Magicians brought me here. RIP Quentin. What an incredibly fleshed out character. You can tell that it was the perfect time to go by how heartbreaking it was to see it happen. I love that he asked himself that one deep question at the end. It was really important to SEE someone being that honest with themselves. His story wrapped up beautifully and I'm always going to be a little bit torn about the show moving on past him...

[ashlyrose]

Magicians brought me here and it was so terribly sad Q was one of the main characters and it was heartbreaking to let him go

[Orihime_Inoue]

Quentin Coldwater death was poetic, we will always love you Curly Q and I hope this isn't the last we see of him.

[Amokraw]

Thanks for everything Quentin, and thanks for being a more accurate and honest character that struggled with mental issues. It meant a lot to get shown accurately.

[rmdavis]

One year later and i still can see Alice's face when Quinton sacrificed himself... #teardrop but Shout out to Old Guard for bringing back those emotions again, it was cleansing

[shanchitaroysorno]
