You don’t understand, you don’t understand
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand

I believe it when they say that the best people pass away
While the evil in this world never die
I believe it when they tell me that good children out to play
Can be gunned down in their school most any day
But if you think I should keep it to myself, I don’t think I can.
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand

You don’t understand, you don’t understand
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand

I’ve seen good friends come and go
I’ve been around enough to know that there’s nothing in this world that stays the same
I have loved with all my heart when it was clear right from the start that it never had a chance. Now who’s to blame?
But if you think I should keep it to myself, I don’t think I can
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand

You don’t understand, you don’t understand
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand
If you think I can keep it to myself, you don’t understand
