excuse me, but i've got a request

could you take the gag off of my mouth

i admit that i'm fairly impressed

cause you're the best at blocking me out



i believe that we weren't quite done

i know it's hard to hear me out again

i realize, you're not the only one

who's terrified of life from end to end



hey hey, can you hear anything i say

i'm feeling unwanted, that's not what i wanted

and attention to me is something you refuse to pay



cause i just can't believe the way that this

continues to go on

i say i wish you didn't always think i'm wrong

so tell me

tell me what will it take to get this through your head

and tell me what will it take

until you see things through from end to end



excuse me, but isn't this the way

that things always turn into something good

you've tried to ignore the things i say

but in the end you found you never could



hey hey, can you hear anything i say

you search for the short-cut, you live life but for what

i love you and hope you will find the truth some day



cause i just can't believe the way that this

continues to go on

i say i wish you didn't always think i'm wrong

so tell me

tell me what will it take to get this through your head

and tell me what will it take

until you see things through from end to end



so tell me

tell me what will it take to get this through your head

and tell me what will it take

to get you on my good side again



and tell me what will it take

to get this through your head

and tell me what will it take

to forget what you knew

just let him find you

and then you'll see things through from end to end
