Tell me, tell me whyyyyyy???
Can you hear me?
Are you faraway and distracted
Or afraid of what I might say
Cuz I know your every move
I can see things
That you walk right through
And I listen to the lessons lost on you
In your race to escape the truth
But I would be the one to break you open
Make you come undone
And I would be the one to turn you over
Let you see what you've become
Cuz there's something in you
That's dyin' to come alive
But you're happy hangin on
Just getting by
Has it faded?
Are you bored with the life you've created?
Would you sacrifice yourself
To protect everything you own?
Cuz it seems to me
That the more you have, the more you want
And the less you understand
How to love and let things go
But I would be the one to break you open
Make you come undone
And I would be the one to turn you over
Let you see what you've become
Cuz there's something in you
That's dyin' to come alive
But you're happy hangin on
Just getting by
Cuz its easy to ignore
Til the walls around you shatter
And nothing seems to matter anymore
Now you're stranded
But you'll stand your ground
Empty-handed
Cuz it hurts to turn around
But I would be the one to break you open
Make you come undone
And I would be the one to turn you over
Let you see what you've become
Cuz there's something in you
That's dyin' to come alive
But you're happy hangin on
Just getting by
