Why?

The year my dreams and my best friend died
My girlfriend left me though I thought I tried
I couldn't play because my hands felt tied
And all I could think was "Is this why?"

Why, why, why; why, why, why?
Why, why, why; why, why, why?

When the pain of living is too much to cry
When your body undermines your struggling mind
When you hope for a day clear from the night
And it hurts just to think but you never know why

Why, why, why; why, why, why?
Why, why, why; why, why, why?

My voice refuses to shout at the sky
Traffic is heavy, my friends aren't coming by
My mail box is full but my address hasn't gone live
The stairs are all down I will never know why

Why, why, why; why, why, why?
Why, why, why; why, why, why?

Why, why, why?
