Understand U
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ch: They don't understand you
None of them understand you
Tonigh, as you stare at the ceiling again
With your lover turning away
Disappointment closing in
Like the walls... and you try...
You try to talk about love
And they put their arms around you
But still you feel all alone
Wonder why...
Ch: They don't understand you
None of them understand you
And it doesn't have to be this way
I know you try to do the things they say
Just because you don't know what it is that you feel
Doesn't mean you can hide it away
Well you try to be less than you are but they know
Yes they know... and silence is a dangerous game
And words are dangerous too
And you've spoken the best that you can...
Ch: They don't understand you
None of them understand you
And it doesn't have to be this way
I know you've tried to do everything that they say...
