Why

[Verse 1]
I keep the one I love at bay
Though I just want you near
Our hearts, they meet, then turn away
I won't admit my fear
No I can't see myself
In love at all
I'm scared of us I hear you call
Deaf ears they fall
I know that I can be better
But I don't know where to start
I want to tell you I love you
But it just tears me apart

[Chorus]
Why?
Why?

[Verse 2]
The things I say and do conflict
You try to understand
I tell you go and leave me be
But then extend my hand
I know that I can do better
Because I don't want us to part
I have to tell you that I love you
But it just tears me apart

[Chorus]
Why?
Why?
Why?
