"Certain Way" lyrics

"Certain Way"

Last night I was so down hearted
I couldn't sleep if I wanted to
Let down by the ones I trusted
Changing what I thought was true

It's no use
Day after day
Pretending life is a certain way

Bow down to the needs of someone
They'll never be satisfied
Feel the full force of their fury
When their appetite is denied

It's no use
Day after day
Pretending life is a certain way
You're driving everyone one away
Pretending life is a certain way

It's like hiding in your room all day
You decided that you won't come out to play

Wake up it's a Monday morning
The day's getting away from you
Confouding your expectations
The sun's out and the sky is blue

It's no use
Day after day
Pretending life is a certain way
You're driving everyone one away
Pretending life is a certain way

Certain way
