Tell Me Why

[Intro]
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

[Verse 1]
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'? 'Cause I'm hurtin'

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
And I can't tell the dark from light
'Cause I sleep through the day
But I'm gone every night
Every song that I write
I did that, I lived that

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
