The birds are singing but it's still dark,
Moving my pillow for the cold hearth,
I dreamed that I was at the crossroads,
Painting over the signs again.

Pulling myself out of the futon,
I get my hoodie and my shoes on, yeah
Treading water 'til the phone goes,
Running over my lines again.

But they're turning inside out,
And it's bringing me down, cause.

I never say what I wanna say,
I'm just a puppet in my own play,
I dont understand why you dont understand that I need to be heard,
And im gonna find the right words.

A couple argue on the high street,
She wants clothes, he wants a TV,
Everyone is standing at the crossroads,
Painting over the signs again.

Pulling myself out of my headspace,
I realize im in the same place, yeah
Treading water 'til the phone goes,
Running over my lines again.

But they're turning inside out,
And it's bringing me down, cause.

I never say what i wanna say,
I'm just a puppet in my own play,
I dont understand why you dont understand that i need to be heard,
And im gonna find the right words.

I never say what i wanna say,
I'm just a puppet in my own play,
I dont understand why you dont understand that i need to be heard,
And im gonna find the right words.

Wanna go to the beach, when it's ra-aining,
And take my time.
I wanna have my life, do my o-own thing,
And make it mine,
So don't you bring me down!

I never say what i wanna say,
I'm just a puppet in my own play,
I dont understand why you dont understand that i need to be heard,
And im gonna find the right words.

I never say what i wanna say,
And we gonna do it my way,
I dont understand why you dont understand that im gonna be heard,
And i know i found the right words

And i know i found the right words
And i know i found the right words
