it's nothing they say

she bangs away

how long will she play

and push us away

we have no idea

lovers secret, suffering sweet

we have no idea

all the things she needs

should've been clearer

should've been clearer

should've been clearer

it's such a shame

i know what everybody's sayin'

they suppose she's to blame

for all the abuse she's been takin'

waiting alone

she's just a child at the station

they miss her at home

there must be some explanation

should've been clearer

should've been clearer

should've been clearer
