Tell Me Why

I look to you when I'm down

And I hope you turn around and see

That I'm not the way I sound

And I'm not the way I seem

But I'ma make you work like a Monday

And you can move it slow like a Sunday

Don't ask me if I'm okay

Are you flirtin'

Cuz I'm hurtin'

And lord, tell me why

I'm still alive

Just let me die

I'm on my own

Just getting by

I'm all alone

Ain't nothing right

And lord, tell me how

I'm so damn uninviting

And you're so unenticing

Let me down

Every time

You can leave me anytime

I know I'm not that kinda guy

That you need all in your life

I'm not surprised

It's all a lie

I can't help the way I act

I'm full of jealousy and hatred in my life

Can't tell my wrongs from rights tonight

Can't tell the dark from light

'Cuz I sleep through the day

But I'm gone every night

Every song that I write

I did that, I live that

And lord, tell me why

I'm still alive

Just let me die

I'm on my own

Just getting by

I'm all alone

Ain't nothing right

And lord, tell me how

I'm so damn uninviting

And you're so unenticing

Let me down

Every time
