On that night when the stars lined up right I decided to give you a call I don't care who's right, I just thought we might Give it another try, before we fall But the look in your eyes came as a surprise Now I realise there's no way back Years have passed by, now the boy's traumatised Trapped inside the body of a man Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say? He barely speaks, 'cause talking is for the weak Just keeps everything locked inside Like a refugee, the boy longs to be free But he'll never be as long as he hides Hiding in his room, safe in his cocoon He's immune to all there is to fear Feels like his mother's womb, but he was born too soon And now the crying is all we ever hear Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say to me? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say to me? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say to me? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say Though his arms look strong, his strength is gone Can't even lift his head He moves his tongue, words come out wrong I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand I wish I'd understand Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say to me? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say to me, say to me? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say? Whatcha trying to say, whatcha trying to say Whatcha trying to say?
