Why...
Why...
How many times to I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
Ooo..
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to try to tell me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun
Yeah...
I tell myself too many times
"Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut?"
That's why it hurts so bad to hurt the words that keep on falling form your mouth.
Falling from your mouth.
Falling from your mouth.
Tell me, why...
I may be mad,
I may be blind,
I may be viciously unkind,
But I can still read what you're thinking.
Ooo...
And I've heard said too many times
That you'd be better off besides
Why can't you see this boat is sinking
(This boat is sinking, this boat is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge,
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out, Turning inside out
Tell me why,
Tell me why
This is the book I have ever read,
These are the words I have ever said,
This is the path I'll never tread,
These are the dreams I dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread,
These are the tears, the tears we shed,
This is the fear, this is the dread,
These are the contents of my head,
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent,
This is how I feel.
Do you know how I feel?
Cause if you think I know how I feel...
I don't think you know what I feel.
I don't think you know what I feel.
You don't know what I fear.
