Good Intentions

See we ain’t any different but we just stay the same
They never listen when we tell 'em, tell 'em
All they understand is venom, venom
People only use you when you let 'em, let 'em
Well if that’s the case then I’m the one to blame
Coz there’s a man over board
And the tides gonna drag him down
If there’s a man in the clouds
Tell me where the hell is he now
Why is the silence so loud?
Have I thrown it all the way?
Lemme know, Lemme know
Tell me is that what happens just for having a good intention, tension oh oh
Look what happened to my good intention, tension oh oh
Why won’t anybody answer my question
Why is the silence so loud?
I think I’ve thrown it all the way
I don’t know, I don’t know
But lemme know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one
I’m walking through the desert but I’m drowning inside
No river runs deeper than the tear from my eye
You only make 'em get even bitter, bitter
I wish I wasn’t such a giver, giver
I apoligise to my liver, liver
Coz if that’s the case then your the one to blame
Coz there’s a man over board
And the tides gonna drag him down
If there’s a man in the clouds
Then tell me where the hell is he now
Why is the silence so loud?
Have I thrown it all the way?
Lemme know, Lemme know
Tell me is that what happens just for having a good intention, oh
Look what happened to my good intention, oh
Why won’t anybody answer my question
Why is the silence so loud
I think I’ve thrown it all the way
I don’t know, I don’t know
But lemme know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one
Am I wrong to think the worlds got it in for me
And am I right to say I’m longing for some sympathy
See I feel a sound, but I can’t hear it
That’s my heart strings getting played like a symphony
Yo, you know you turned me insane
Why you staring at window when I’m the one with the pain
You know you set me off the rails
And you’ll be to blame
If you’re ever here
I dropped in front of the train with both
Coz there’s a man over board
And the tides gonna drag him down
If there’s a man in the clouds
Well tell me where the hell is he now
Why is the silence so loud?
Have I thrown it all the way?
Lemme know, Lemme know
Tell me is that what happens just for having a good intention, oh
Look what happened to my good intention, oh
Why won’t anybody answer my question
Why is the silence so loud
I think I’ve thrown it all the way
I don’t know, I don’t know
But lemme know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one
