Lyrics What Did I Do? - The Correspondents

What Did I Do?

What did I do
To deserve that fear coming true?
(oh oh oh oh)
That fear coming true
Did I say too many things in rage
To friends, to lovers, to family?
Did I cause them pain at any stage?
None of it was meant intentionally
Did the powers that be look down on me and think «We'll balance him out
By taking away the one thing that we know he can’t live without?»
What did I do
To deserve that fear coming true?
(oh oh oh oh)
That fear coming true
Now I face up to losing you
One thing I thought I’d never have to do
And still
I stare at people walking in the street
And think some must have done worse than me
Those who greet their wives with booted feet
Or those who steal from the elderly
Why couldn’t this hand be dealt to them
In an eye for an eye
Rather than giving me this?
I cannot understand no matter how hard I try
But life is not a case of doing good and good will come
The blackest thoughts can reap rewards
When black deeds have been done
No one can predict which fan this type of shit will hit
This was not the piece of the puzzle that was designed to fit
Oh, no
What did I do
To deserve that fear coming true?
What did I do
To deserve that fear coming true?
What did I do
To deserve that fear coming true?
