My walls are closing in, my life is passing by
There's something you should know, but never ask me why
In a room without a view, where all our souls will last
But all you hear and see is dark, but still you ask:
Tell me why
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you dry my tears
Nowhere, the place you arm your fears
Tell me why
Why don't you see me
Why don't we pass it by
Nowhere, I'm here to tell you why
Tell me why
You're treading on my dreams, the one who taught me how
I hide my feelings, but all those memories brought me down
My reason to believe, still hope is coming through
The downward spiral never ends and I'm losing you!
Tell me why
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you dry my tears
Nowhere, the place you arm your fears
Tell me why
Why don't you see me
Why don't we pass it by
Nowhere, I'm here to tell you why
Tell me why
[Solo]
Tell me why
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you dry my tears
Nowhere, the place you arm your fears
Tell me why
Why don't you see me
Why don't we pass it by
Nowhere, I'm here to tell you why
Tell me why
There's something you should know, but never ask me why
In a room without a view, where all our souls will last
But all you hear and see is dark, but still you ask:
Tell me why
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you dry my tears
Nowhere, the place you arm your fears
Tell me why
Why don't you see me
Why don't we pass it by
Nowhere, I'm here to tell you why
Tell me why
You're treading on my dreams, the one who taught me how
I hide my feelings, but all those memories brought me down
My reason to believe, still hope is coming through
The downward spiral never ends and I'm losing you!
Tell me why
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you dry my tears
Nowhere, the place you arm your fears
Tell me why
Why don't you see me
Why don't we pass it by
Nowhere, I'm here to tell you why
Tell me why
[Solo]
Tell me why
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you dry my tears
Nowhere, the place you arm your fears
Tell me why
Why don't you see me
Why don't we pass it by
Nowhere, I'm here to tell you why
Tell me why
