You're there sailing like a brother of the ocean (the ocean)
I'm here drowning like a wave without a notion (a notion)
Don't let me be misunderstood
(Got nothing to say about it)
Who's running away in the woods?
Maybe in the depth, in the dark, in the night
Everybody's scared, e-everybody's scared
Maybe to be happy and gentle and kind
Everybody's scared, e-everybody's scared
What about you?
Dum-dum-dum, dum-dum-dum
Run, run, run from all the demons in my head (my head)
Why, why did you leave your problems in my bed? (My bed)
Don't let me be misunderstood
(Got nothing to say about it)
Who's running away in the woods?
Maybe in the depth, in the dark, in the night
Everybody's scared, e-everybody's scared
Maybe to be happy and gentle and kind
Everybody's scared, e-everybody's scared
What about you?
Dum-dum-dum, dum-dum-dum
(Don't let me be misunderstood)
(Everybody's, e-everybody's scared)
Dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum
What about you?
