Something Unspoken

[Verse 1]

I cried while I did the dishes

While I wished that I was somebody's son

There's a taste of metal in my mouth

Remindin' me that I'm still young

[Verse 2]

I fell for a girl who looked just like me

I was burnin' for blisters and my blue stained teeth

Am I angry or are you just tired

Of seein' yourself through these eyes?

[Chorus]

I was tryin' to make you happy

I guess it never worked out

Always tryin' to make you happy

I guess it never worked out

[Verse 3]

I know that you didn't mean it

It doesn't mean that it didn't hurt

I wish my arms were leaner

Or that I felt good wearin' a skirt

[Bridge]

Something unspoken

I guess it never worked out

Means you know what it's like

I guess it never worked out

Something unspoken

I guess it never worked out

Means you know what it's like, when

[Chorus]

And I was tryin' to make you happy

I guess it never worked out

I'm always tryin' to make you happy

I guess it never works

[Post-Chorus]

I guess it never works

I guess it never works

I guess it never works

I guess it never works

[Verse 4]

Is it a family thing? (Happens again and again)

Is it me bein' me? (Happens again and again)

Is it a family thing? (Happens again and again)

Is it me bein' me? (Happens again and again)

[Outro]

And I was tryin' to make you happy

I guess it never works
