[Verse 1]

Nobody knows what I go through

Indecisions lead me passively

They say I want my cake and I wanna eat it too

Not satisfied if I don't, consequences when I do

These lessons, they lead me on my way

But when company is tempting me, I turn around

But I might wanna go that way

(Don't wanna go that way)

[Chorus]

Well, it's a Catch 22

Damned if I don't, damned if I do

Yes, it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22)

Damned if I don't, damned if I do (Damned if I do)

[Verse 2]

How many times does it take to learn just one thing

(Learn just one thing)

'Cause I keep ending up here

And I'm not a scientist so I just keep on praying

That I won't keep getting the same results each day

And I said that I can't be with you

But when you turn around I pull back your hands to stay

(Your hands to stay)

So many days turn to years that brought us here

And we strive through time without too many tears

But we still made decisions creating divisions

So many contradictions

Why didn't we listen?

[Chorus]

Well, it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22)

Damned if I don't, damned if I do (Damned if I do, oh)

Yes, it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22, oh)

Damned if I don't, damned if I do (Oh, oh, oh)

[Bridge]

'Cause when I see you looking at her

I can't stand it, my eyes can't conceive

You give her the smile you gave to me

I love you selfishly

And I can feel so strongly (Strongly)

Oh, how you throw me

But still you know, you know me

Oh, you know me

[Chorus]

But it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22)

Damned if I don't, damned if I do (Oh, oh, oh)

Yes, it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22)

I'm damned if I don't, damned if I do (Damned if I do)

Well, it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22)

I'm damned if I don't, damned if I do (Damned if I do)

Yes, it's a Catch 22 (Catch 22)

I'm damned if I don't, damned if I do
