9

I don't understand about complementary colors

And what they say

Side by side they both get white

Together they both get gray

But he's been pretty much yellow

And I've been cryin' blue

But all I can see is

Red, red, red, red, red now

What am I to do

I don't understand about

Diamonds and why men buy them

What's so impressive about a diamond

Except the mining

And it's dangerous work

Trying to get to you too

And I think if I didn't have to

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill myself doing it

Maybe I might not glisten so much for you

I've been watching all the time

And I still can't find the track

And I wanna know is it okay

Is it just fine

Was it my fault

Is it my lack

I don't understand about

The weather outside

The harbinger to the words

That somebody lied

There's solace a bit for submitting

To the fitfully cryptically true

What's happened has happened

What's coming is already on its way

With a role for me to play

I don't understand

I'll never understand

But I'm trying to understand

There's nothing else I can do
