Lyrics

Why

[Verse 1]

Why are you still sad?

You were such a happy child

Look what you have

You are young and in your prime

[Chorus]

You could go and make some sense of your life

There's a world outside your home but you're wasted on your own

[Verse 2]

Why'd it go so wrong?

You haven't left your house for so long [?]

Always saying that you're tired

[Chorus]

You could go and make some sense of your life

But you're sleeping all the time

You been living in your mind

Why?

[Instrumental]

[Screamed]

Why? Why?

[Verse 3]

You are young and in your prime

You could go and make some more of your life

There's a world outside your home but you're wasted on your own

You're just staring at your phone
