How many times, do I have to try to tell you
Why?
Besides, why can't you see this boat is sinking?
Let's go down to the water's edge
These are the tears, the tears we shed
I don't think you know what I feel
This is how I feel, do you know how I feel?
Tell me
I don't think you know what I feel
This is the fear, this is the dread
That I'm sorry for the things, I've done? ooh
This is the book, I never read
Tell me
Why?
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut?
Turning inside out, turning inside out
Falling from your mouth, falling from your mouth
These are the words, I never said
That's why it hurts so bad, to hear the words
And we can cast away those doubts
Why?
Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun, yeah
And I've heard it said too many times, that you'd be better off
That keep on falling from your mouth
And these are the years, that we have spent
You don't know what I feel
I may be mad, I may be blind, I may be viciously unkind
But they still turn me inside out
This boat is sinking, this boat is sinking
These are the contents of my head
Why?
That's when you have to tell me
But when I start to try to tell you
Tell me
And this is what they represent
But I can still read what you're thinking, ooh
Some things are better left unsaid
This is the joy, that's seldom spread
This is the path, I'll never tread
These are the dreams, I'll dream instead
I tell myself too many times
