[Verse 1]
I could see her fall from grace
Like a movie star, too old to change her life
With a bottle by her head
Every night she went away
I would pray for someone else to change her life
If she wouldn't change for me
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Please, tell me why
You stole my life
Tell me why
[Verse 2]
Just tired of hearing the same old song
Every time you came back frozen deep inside
Was it my love that you feared?
I was a misfit all the way
Never there to help me grow and change my life
Then you smiled and walked away
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Please, tell me why
You stole my life
Tell me why
[Bridge]
All the little things she said to me
Were broken thoughts and tainted dreams
If she can't take these memories
It doesn't change a thing
Every little word she said to me
That broke my heart and stayed with me
I wish that she could hear me scream
She never changed a thing
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Please, tell me why
You stole my life, life
Tell me why
[Outro]
This can't go on
This can't go on
This can't go on
This can't go on
This can't go on
