Predictable (Alternate Version) Lyrics
Good Charlotte
Lyrics
Nani kagachigau
Matakanjiteru kanjiteru
Ore konna ni mata ano hajimete janai
Kanashii iiwaketo misekakenokitai
Konna rutte wakatteta
nandeanataoireta wakaranai
I knew it all along
It's so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
So predictable (so predictable)
Ima no nai kotoba kowa retayakusoku
Ubawaretajikan mootaerarenaikara
Nakutemoii nakutemoii
Yura beki koto yatta
Oresachusuru Kyouikiru
morattamonowakaesu
Iranaikara
I knew it all along
It's so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
So predictable (so predictable)
Everywhere I go
Everyone I meet
Every time I try to fall in love
They all want to know why I'm so broken
Why am I so cold
Why I'm so hard inside.
Why am I scared
What am I afraid of
I don't even know
This story's never had an end
I've been waiting
I've been searching
I've been hoping
I've been dreaming you would come back
But I know the ending of this story
You're never coming back
Never.never.never.never...
I knew it all along
It's so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
So predictable (so predictable)
Everywhere I go for the rest of my life (so predictable)
Everyone that I love
Everyone I care about
They're all gonna wanna know what's wrong with me (so predictable)
And I know what it is
I'm ending this right now.
