BD5een to the same old places

Tryin' to figure out just where I went wrA5ong.
And so I sing this song!

Each and every day
It's so hard when you're close, yet you're so far away.
I knock on your door but you won't let me in.

But you hang up the phone
I just say, "Hello" and you say, "Leave me alone".
I wanna know just where I went wrong
And so I sing this song!
