Good Intentions

[Verse 1]
I've seen a lot of things in life that words can't explain
See we ain’t any different but we just ain't the same
They never listen when we tell 'em, tell 'em
All they understand is venom, venom
People only use you when you let 'em, let 'em
Well if that's the case then I'm the one to blame

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a man over board
And the tides gonna drag him down
If there's a man in the clouds
Then tell me where the hell is he now
Why is the silence so loud?
Have I thrown it all away?
Let me know, let me know, tell me

[Chorus]
Is that what happens just for having a good intention, -tention? Oh oh, oh
Look what happened to my good intention, -tention, oh oh, oh
Why won't anybody answer my question?
Why is the silence so loud?
I think I threw it all away
I don't know, I don't know, but let me know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one

[Verse 2]
I'm walking through the desert but I'm drowning inside
No river runs deeper than the tear from my eye
You only went and made me bitter, bitter
I wish I wasn't such a giver, giver
Apologise to my liver, liver
'Cause if that's the case then you're the one to blame

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a man over board ('Cause there's a man over board)
And the tides gonna drag him down (Hey)
If there's a man in the clouds (Oh whoa)
Then tell me where the hell is he now (Yeah)
Why is the silence so loud? (Tell me, why is it so loud?)
Have I thrown it all away? (Yeah)
Let me know, let me know, tell me

[Chorus]
Is that what happens just for having a good intention, -tention? Oh oh, oh
Look what happened to my good intention, -tention, oh oh, oh
Why won't anybody answer my question?
Why is the silence so loud?
I think I threw it all away
I don't know, I don't know, but let me know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one

[Verse 3]
Am I wrong to think the worlds got it in for me?
And am I right to say I'm longing for some sympathy?
See I feel a sound, but I can't hear it
That's my heart strings getting played like a symphony (Ugh)
Yo, you know you turned me insane (Yeah)
Why you staring at window when I'm the one with the pain? (Uh?)
You know you set me off the rails (Uh?)
And you'll be to blame
If you ever hear I jumped in front of the train
With both fucked in the brain

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a man over board (Whoa oh, oh oh)
And the tides gonna drag him down
If there's a man in the clouds
Then tell me where the hell is he now
Why is the silence so loud? (Tell me why is it so loud?)
Have I thrown it all away?
Let me know, let me know, tell me

[Chorus]
Is that what happens just for having a good intention, -tention? Oh oh, oh
Look what happened to my good intention, -tention, oh oh, oh
Why won't anybody answer my question?
Why is the silence so loud? (Tell me why is it so loud?)
I think I threw it all away
I don't know, I don't know, but let me know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one

[Outro]
Why is the silence so loud?
I think I threw it all away
I don't know, I don't know, but let me know
Hear me out before you label me the bad one
