Misunderstood

[Verse 1] Every time you stand up Ready for your close-up I keep wondering how it's all supposed to be This is gonna blow up Storming in a teacup I'll keep swimming steadily against the stream And you don't even heed me Treat me as an enemy See me as a failure and see me as dumb You don't even need me To keep it all in harmony I am disappointment and I am no fun [Pre-Chorus] How could this be misunderstood? [Chorus] No one will tell you why they smile as they berate you They keep saying it's gonna be fine No one will help you as they constantly sedate you They keep killing the grape on the vine [Verse 2] Singing your own praises Constantly amazes I don't wanna hear the words you're saying to me How can I rephrase this? You're all rats in mazes Constantly you're fighting over scraps of the cheese Observing all your weakness Puddles have more deepness Empty vessels clamouring across the sea Revel in your genius Eating clean and meatless I'll be in the corner with my dignity [Pre-Chorus] How could this be misunderstood? [Chorus] No one will tell you why they smile as they berate you They keep saying it's gonna be fine No one will help you as they constantly sedate you They keep killing the grape on the vine No one will tell you why they smile as they berate you They keep saying it's gonna be fine No one will help you as they constantly sedate you They keep killing the grape on the vine [Outro] They keep saying it's gonna be fine They keep killing the grape on the vine
