My back's against the wall
I've painted so brilliantly red
I've heard better excuses
Come from my own mouth
Did you think that I was stupid
Did you think I wouldn't catch on?

Why can't you
Be what I need?
And when you turn
Your back, will be
The last thing I see
(Why can't you be what I need?)

My hands agianst your chest
My Heart against your words
I've heard better excuses
Come from my own mouth
Did you think that I was stupid
Did you think I wouldn't catch on?

(Why can't I be what you need?)
