You think you know but you don't 
Wish I could read your mind but 
I can't, so 
I won't I wish that 
I could say what it is 
I'd like to say 
Instead I've got my tongue twisted up and tied away 
I'm trying to do my best 
Yes I know that failure is a lesson, 
I've been guessing 
And stressing and trying to make up my decision 
And guess that's how life goes 
Every time 
I want poetry she wants prose 
I'm too slow, trying to pick it up though 
Is it me you're really into? 
No it's me you feel sorry for 
This is out of control 
Why can't 
I ever I get it though? 
Damn, why can't 
I ever it though? 
At least I got my brains, at least 
I got my with 
Watch me go on over, see the conversation slip 
I'm feeling kinda twisted and yes 
I'm kinda sick 
I try to counter, man 
I wish that 
I could hit and never miss girl 
Yeah you know that things ain't easy 
Try to understand and believe me 
Yes I want the real thing 
Oh girl, I want the real thing baby 
This is out of control 
Why can't 
I ever I get it though? 
Damn, why can't 
I ever it though? 
Got it all figured out now
