Understand U Lyrics - New Model Army

They don't understand you 

None of them understand you 

Tonight, as you stare at the ceiling again 

With you lover turning away 

Disappointment closing in like the walls 

And you try, you try to talk about love 

And they put their arms around you 

But still you feel all alone - wonder why 

Ch: They don't understand you 

None of them understand you 

And it doesn't have to be this way 

I know you try to do the things they say 

Just because you don't know what it is that you feel 

Doesn't mean you can hide it away 

Well you try to be less than you are but they know 

Yes they know - and silence is a dangerous game 

And words are dangerous too 

And you've spoken the best that you can 

Ch: They don't understand you 

None of them understand you 

And it doesn't have to be this way 

I know you've tried to do everything that they say
