Otherwise
They wanted me here
Just to show you my face
But when it comes to the crunch
I just hide in disgrace
You're calling me mad
But i know you're the same
Cause you got to be seen to be playing the game
Yes we got to be seen to be playing, the game
It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now
Everytime you criticise
I'm under your curse now
But I call it compromise
I thought that you were wise
But you were otherwise
A specimen like you
I would love to obtain
I asked a tedious guy if he'll tell me your name
I'd love to impress you
With a back somersault
I want to take out your love
But it's locked in a vault
I wanna take up your love
But it's locked in a vault
It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now
Everytime you criticise
I'm under your curse now
But I call it compromise
I thought that you were wise
But you were otherwise
When i open my mouth
I'm so brutally honest
And i can't expect that kind of love from you
When you open your mouth
your teeth are beautifully polished
And i can't extract the pain you're going through
No i can't explain
The pain you're going through
It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now
Everytime you womanise
I'm under your curse now
But I call it compromise
I'm under your curse
It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now
Everytime you criticise
I'm under your curse now
But they call it compromise
I thought that you were wise
But you were otherwise
Just to show you my face
But when it comes to the crunch
I just hide in disgrace
You're calling me mad
But i know you're the same
Cause you got to be seen to be playing the game
Yes we got to be seen to be playing, the game
It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now
Everytime you criticise
I'm under your curse now

TRADUZIONE
In caso Contrario
Mi volevano qui Solo per mostrarti il mio viso
Ma quando si arriva alla crisi mi nascondo dalla vergogna
Mi dai del pazzo, ma so che tu sei uguale a me
Perché bisogna vederti in gioco Sì, dobbiamo essere visti in gioco
Non ti farà più soffrire ora se apri gli occhi
Ora stai peggiorando le cose, ogni volta che critichi
Sono sotto il peso della tua maledizione ora, lo chiamano compromesso
Pensavo fossi saggio ma eri tutto il contrario
Loro stressano me come stressano te, mi piacerebbe averti
Ho chiesto a quel tipo se poteva dirmi il tuo nome
Mi piacerebbe far colpo su di te Con i risvolti della mia anima
Vorrei avere il tuo amore ma è chiuso in cassaforte
Vorrei avere il tuo amore ma è chiuso in cassaforte
Quando apro bocca sono brutalmente onesto
E non posso aspettarmi quel tipo di amore da te
Quando tu apri bocca, è tutto cosi diplomatico
E non riesco a far venir fuori il dolore che stai attraversando
No, non so spiegare il dolore che stai attraversando
