"To Be Misunderstood" lyrics

There's no good reason for seeing all the signs so soon
Make up the meaning, demand what you trying to prove
Judge every one of my decisions like they're black and white
What difference does it make to you if I go left or right?

It's a shame, we speak a different language
But there's a name for people that assume

There's nothing left to discuss
You've already made your mind up
You don't know my intentions
I told you, but you don't listen
So caught up in your perception
You did me no good
Oh, to be misunderstood

Make your prediction and bet that I'll make mine
Write your own ending before you've read the first line

Oh, it's a shame, we're lost in translation
There's a name for people just like you

There's nothing left to discuss
You've already made your mind up
You don't know my intentions
I told you but you don't listen
So caught up in your perception
You did me no good
Oh, to be misunderstood

There's a part of me wanting to prove you wrong
But honestly, I think that I'm not doing no harm
Yeah, so if you're watching you can
Judge every one of my decisions like they're black and white
You know, that it won't make a difference to me if it's what you like

You don't know my intentions
I told you but you don't listen
So caught up in your perception
You did me no good
I'm standing right where I should
Man, it kinda feels good
Oh, to be misunderstood
