[Verse 1]
Oh, when I say something
I wish I had shut up (Oh)
And when I try to help
I always screw things up (Oh)
The places that feel right
They never last too long (Oh)
And when I think of things
They always turn out wrong
[Refrain]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Oh, when I say something
Nobody backs me up (Oh)
When I try by myself
I m-m-mess it up (Oh)
Oh, when they say something
You always suck it up (Oh)
And when I try to help
It never is enough
[Refrain]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
What can I do? What can I do?
What can I say? What can I say?
What can I do? What can I do?
Nothing changes, it's all the same
What can I do? What can I do?
What can I say? What can I say?
What can I do? What can I do?
Nothing changes, it's all the same
[Verse 3]
Why do I say something?
Say anything at all (Oh)
It seems that when I try
I always take the fall (Oh)
But when I don't speak up
There's nothing but regret (Oh)
I can't stop thinking of
What could've happened next
[Refrain]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
What can I do? What can I do?
What can I say? What can I say?
What can I do? What can I do?
Nothing changes, it's all the same
What can I do? What can I do?
What can I say? What can I say?
What can I do? What can I do?
Nothing changes, it's all the same
[Refrain]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

There was a situation at...
