Irrational

(Yeah, yeah)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

Sometimes it's hard to show, the feelings deep inside
They say I'm too emotional, like I've got something to hide
They don't ask the reasons, they just point and blame
Call me irrational, like I'm some kind of shame

But they don't know the weight I carry every day
When I say "I'm okay," it's just a role I play

Irrational, they call me irrational
But they don't see the tears I fight to hold
Irrational, I'm feeling so irrational
All I want is to be understood, not controlled

I try to understand, every single move they make
But when it comes to me, they think it's all a mistake
Insensitive, they say, like I don't even care
But if they felt my heart, they'd see it's all laid bare

But they don't know the battles I fight inside my mind
When I say "I'm fine," it's just a way to hide

Irrational, they call me irrational
But they don't see the tears I fight to hold
Irrational, I'm feeling so irrational
All I want is to be understood, not controlled

Irrational, oh-oh
Irrational, oh-oh
Irrational, just want to be understood
Irrational, oh-oh
Irrational, oh-oh
Irrational, just want to be understood

I'm reaching out, I need you to see
There's more to my story, more than you believe
I want to be heard, I want to be seen
Just take a moment, step into my dream

But they don't see the tears I fight to hold
Irrational, I'm feeling so irrational
All I want is to be understood, not controlled

Irrational
Irrational
Irrational, just want to be understood not control
Irrational, oh-oh
Irrational, oh-oh
Irrational, just want to be understood

Oh, oh-oh
Irrational
Just want to be understood
Yeah, yeah, oh, oh-oh, just want to be
Understood, irrational
Irrational
