You don't understand


You don't understand
How hard it can be for one man
You don't understand
I was taken in
You don't wanna know that there's evil in the land
You don't understand
How bad people can be
What happened to me
You don't understand

There's skulduggery about
You don't believe, you don't believe how bad it can be
'Cause you don't wanna see
What's happened to me
What they can do to you
You don't have a clue
I'm only one man
You don't understand

Can't trust human nature
Can't trust human nature, no matter what you do
Human nature can't be trusted
Human nature can't be true

Trying to see through the celtic mist
Does freedom of speech exist?
What free state is this?
You don't understand how they work in the dark
You don't understand what it's like to be a mark
You don't understand how bad it is, I was taken in
You don't understand how mad and dangerous some people can be

You can't trust human nature
No matter what anyone tells you to do
Human nature can't be true
'Cause it's only human through and through

Trying to see through the celtic mist
Does freedom of speech exist?
What free state is this?
You don't understand how they work in the dark
You don't understand what it's like to be a mark
You don't understand how I was taken in
How mad, bad, and dengerous
How mad, bad, and dengerous some people can be
Why can't you see?

Take my name in vain
Cause me to be wrecked and strained
People that are comfortably insane
Feels like a ball and chain
Pounding on my brain
You don't understand
You don't understand my life is in shreds
You don't understand
You don't understand
You don't wanna believe how bad it is
You don't understand how bad it can get
You don't understand how sad it is
You don't understand how my life is in shreds
I just wanna put it to bed, put it away
You don't understand
You just can't comprehend
Driving me roudn the bend
You don't understand
You don't understand
You don't understand
You don't understand
Alright

You don't understand
You don't understand
You don't understand
You don't understand
You just don't understand

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
