I have tried to understand

I have tried to be a better man

But your world's too hard to see

And your words are killing me

I don't ask that much of you

I just want to hear the truth

But you keep on passing by

Look the other way when I see your eyes

Why can't I be your baby

Why can't I be your man

I ... it's driving me crazy

Why I don't understand

You had all I could give

And I believed you deserved it

Now you're making me realize

Talk about "couldn't make the sacrifice"

See I thought you were serious

But it seems you're scared of us

So now I can't see straight

I guess I'm the one who's been afraid
