if I was the last person to know 
how you cheated me 
did you think I could let go 
of your betrayal easily 
oh no it went deep 

I lost a lot of sleep 
thinking I had no one to turn to 
oh I 
oh I 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
how you ever gonna see clearly 
are you ever gonna know the real me 
I gotta stop the world I gotta stop the world 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I 
I cant take all the misquotes and lies 
barbed wire bouquets 
but you I never thought 
would stoop so low 
I guess that goes to show 
what you just don't know 
can really hurt you so 
and I'm not sure who to trust anymore 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
are you ever gonna see clearly 
how you ever gonna know the real me 
I gotta stop the world I gotta stop the world 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I 
I cant deny it stresses me like no lover ever could 
makes me wonder why the world is such a jealous lover 
ask me what I have learned 
you gotta play the fool to catch the wise 
act the mute to hear the lies 
what else 
what else 
what else 
and the rest 
coming home is always the best 
but a smile can hide a deadly weapon 
and a friend you thought you could rely on 
don't you feel sorry for me baby 
don't you feel sorry for me baby 
oh I 
oh I 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
are you ever gonna see clearly 
how you ever gonna know the real me 
gotta stop the world 
oh I gotta stop the world 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
are you ever gonna see me clearly 
how you ever gonna know the real me 
I gotta stop the world 
I gotta stop the world 
gotta stop the world misfocusing on me 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I 
oh I oh I 
oh
