Tell Me Why

[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
