Imbruglia, Natalie - Contradictions Lyrics






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 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.

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?

    Never heard no preacher tell anyone this truth!

  2. R.... B....

    He is not a deaf ear God, he just doesn't here sinners till they repent of their disobedience to his Word. It is even an abomination for a sinner to pray before total repentance. It is in the Concordance! Love you all and you to Natalie !

    Yes kids a B-side was originally the back of a double sided "45" , a small 45 rpm vinyl record. I had dozens of them as a kid. The B-side may not have been included on the album or not, often it was a throwaway song, because of course no one ever listened to them.

  8. c.... ....

    Oh for gods sake children, B-side was originally the other side of a 45 rpm vinyl single, the A side was the released hit and the B side was a "bonus".

  9. s.... ....

    she looks so sexy right there!

  10. a.... ....

    Actually a "b-side" song in a CD, was a song not included in the original album and instead was performed in a cd-single. Nothing to do with the cassette (which i miss so much).

  11. z.... ....

    O, ok thanx for explaining :)

  12. z.... ....

    What do ypu mean by (biside) does that mean on the other side of this cd?

  13. s.... ....

    Thanks for posting. Many of her b-sides are just as good as--and in a couple instances better than--her album tracks. Hadn't heard this one before.
