Do try to understand
I've been through this before
About a hundred fucking times
Before I met you

I want straightforwardness
Let's go right to the point
These days I'm running short on time
To waste on love songs

Don't keep me waiting
Don't leave me hanging out to dry
I've been so lonely
That positively
only this can make me feel alive

I'm not so self-assured
As you would thing I'd be
This time I'm trying to say goodbye
To all these fucking butterflies

Don't keep me waiting
Don't leave me hanging out to dry
I've been so lonely
That positively only this can make me feel alive
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I'm really not that kind of guy
I've been disrupted
Shut down and self-destructive
Don't give me any bullshit
Come bring me back to life
Don't leave me lonely
Cause positively
only this can make me feel alive
