Natalie Imbruglia - Contradictions

Seventeen years in a dead end job

Telling his dreams to a deaf eared god

Hangin' on tight by a single thread

Prayin' for a change

Everything you could have sacrificed

Your flesh and blood had it's own sweet price

Baby's all grown up and moved away

Where's that leave you now

It was your own decision

You made my life your mission

Somebody tell me (it doesn't make no sense at all)

Somebody tell em

Why we're living in a world of contradiction

Somebody tell me (it doesn't make no sense at all)

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction

Why is it so hard to be understood

Doing so much for the common good

Sorry if I didn't see the truth

The sadness in your eyes

I wanted to stand on my own two feet

Looking at life as a one way street

Thinking that I had it all worked out

Where's that leave me now

We lost communication

Too many expectations

Somebody tell me (it doesn't make no sense at all)

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction

Somebody tell me (it doesn't make no sense at all)

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction

Everything I have inside

I kept it wrapped up tight

All I know is

All I want to know is

Somebody tell me

Somebody tell me (it doesn't make no sense at all)

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction

In a world of contradiction

Seventeen years in a dead end job

Telling his dreams to a deaf eared god

Hangin' on tight by a single thread

Where's that leave you now
