I could see her fall from grace
|
Like a movie star too old to change her life
|
With a bottle by her hand
|
Every night she went away
|
I would pray for someone else to change her life
|
If she wouldn't change for me
|
|
Tell me why
|
Please tell me why
|
You stole my life
|
Tell me why
|
|
Tired of hearing the same old song
|
Every time you came back frozen deep inside
|
Was it my love that you feared?
|
I was a misfit all the way
|
Never there to help me grow and change my life
|
Then you smiled and walked away
|
|
Tell me why
|
Please tell me why
|
You stole my life
|
Tell me why
|
|
All the little things she said to me
|
Were broken thoughts and tainted dreams
|
If she can't take these memories
|
It doesn't change a thing
|
Every little word she said to me
|
That broke my heart and stayed with me
|
I wish that she could hear me scream
|
She never changed a thing
|
|
Tell me why
|
Please Tell me why
|
You stole my life (LIFE)
|
Tell my why
|
|
This can't go on
|
This can't go on
|
This can't go on
|
This can't go on
|
This can't go on
|
|

(Written for a girl who reached out to Scooter Ward about her abusive household. If this song helps comfort her in in any little way at all, it was worth writing.)
