Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
Then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
Then you did something wrong and you said it was great
Now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do the same as you
[Verse 2]
Sayin', "You're so sophisticated"
They're complainin', overeducated
You are saying all the words I'm dreaming
Say it after me
[Verse 3]
They will blame us, crucify and shame us
We can't help it if we are a problem
We are tryin' hard to get your attention
I'm climbin' up your wall
Climbin' up your wall
[Verse 4]
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
Then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same as you
[Verse 5]
Waitin' for the elevator
You were sayin' all the words I'm dreaming
No more askin' questions or excuses
Information's here
Here and everywhere
[Verse 6]
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
And then you want me to do it the same way as you
[Verse 7]
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
Then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
Then you did something wrong and you said it was great
Now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same way as you
