You leave the room and tension blooms like roses
It ain′t nice to be on your bad side
I open up the peace talk, but you close it
'Cause all you like from me is sweetness and light

If I could explain it, I would
But every time I feel misunderstood
It′s like I'm a stranger
But only knowing looks can give you the thing you need
Goodbye then, take it easy

Your poker face remains still undefeated
And somehow I never say what I meant
But you start to laugh, and then I go to pieces
And heavenly silence wins in the end

If I could explain it, I would
But every time I feel misunderstood
It's like I′m a stranger
And only knowing looks can give you the thing you need
Goodbye then, take it easy

(Don′t wanna feel misunderstood)

(Stranger)

If I could explain it, I would
But every time I feel misunderstood
It's like I′m a stranger
And only knowing looks can give you the thing you need
Goodbye then, take it easy
