lyrics

You say it's complicated
Like a puzzle with some pieces lost
"If you stand back you'll see the picture
If you look hard the details are nicely embossed"
I guess I don't see it
But then again I can be so shallow and blind
Guess I'll never know just what to think
What goes on inside your complex mind
So many things I don't understand
Can't you please lend me a hand

And I don't get you
Never did and never will
I don't get you
But I'm waiting for you still

You got a million excuses
To explain away all your various acts
Does it really matter what I think
When you've got such a handle on all of the facts
I want to show sympathy
But you make it so incredibly hard
There can be no bridge between us
When you always put up your guard
No I don't know where you've been
Could you please clue me in

You say I should trust you
And you have my best interest at heart
Well I won't be taken in
By the insincerity that you impart
Why do you just what you do
Well I can only speculate
If you don't hear what you say
All of your words will carry no weight
Talk to me loud and clear
In a voice that I can hear
