[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Why are we here
I can't accept the fact you're leaving me and I'm so ashamed
God, can't you see
I've been blinded by things that I can't even hear
[Pre-Chorus]
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
[Chorus]
Needless to say that I'm going for the kill
The beauty lies inside of you
And not where you think it is
I'm so preoccupied I don't know what to do
The only thing that I will miss when I die is you
[Verse 2]
Why are we still
Climbing on mountains just for the thrill
Please help me here
I'm completely lost without you
And I cannot kill
[Pre-Chorus]
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
[Chorus]
Needless to say that I'm going for the kill
The beauty lies inside of you
And not where you think it is
I'm so preoccupied I don't know what to do
The only thing that I will miss when I die is you
[Instrumental - Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
We can't save this
We can kill this
[Chorus]
Needless to say that I'm going for the kill
The beauty lies inside of you
And not where you think it is
I'm so preoccupied I don't know what to do
The only thing that I will miss when I die is
(You-ooh-ooh) Needless to say that I'm going for the kill
The beauty lies inside of you
And not where you think it is
(You-ooh-ooh) I'm so preoccupied I don't know what to do
The only thing that I will miss when I die is you
