I promise, I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to cause you any pain
It's just in pressure situations
Something wrong goes on in my brain
I guess I should have paid
More attention to my parent's call
They said, "If you can't say anything good
Then don't say anything at all", no, no, no
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
We want them closer but we drive them away
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
(Why do wе do)
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
Thе ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
We want them closer but we drive them away
Why's it so hard to just be honest?
Stop the games and communicate
Heart to heart, talk it over
Work it out, that would be so great
But on and on we go
Reading lines written for the fool
Saying things we don't really feel
And makin' secrets of things we do, yeah
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
We want them closer but we drive them away
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
(Why do we do)
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
We want them closer but we drive them away
On and on we go
Reading lines written for the fool
Saying things we don't really feel
And makin' secrets of things we do
Gotta stop it
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
We want them closer but we drive them away
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
(Why do we do)
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
(Why do the things that we say)
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
We want them closer but we drive them away
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
(Why do we do)
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
(Why do the things that we say)
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
(Why do we hurt the ones we hurt)
We want them closer but we drive them away
Oh, why do we do the things that we do?
(Why do we do)
Oh, why do we say the things that we say?
(Why do the things that we say)
The ones that we love are the ones that we hurt
(Why do we hurt the ones we hurt)
We want them closer but we drive them away
