[Chorus]
Why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why

[Verse 1]
I've kept way too many things to myself
My therapist said it's no good for my health
Never told you how much I love you and I cared
Never told you so much when you were standing right there
It's so hard to speak, must be the anxiety that's always here crushing me
So many words in my head, but nothing comes through my teeth
I wish I told you how damn important you were to me
I wish I told you baby, and maybe you'd never leave
I hurt so many people, I'm a monster, a mess
I can't make no more excuses, but I can't go to rest
I'd do anything to go back, and for once just try my best
But instead, I wasted so much time thinking about my death
Why, why, fuck yeah

[Chorus]
Why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me, tell me

[Verse 2]
Tell your family you love them
Tell that girl she's the one
I wasted too much damn time with my head pressed to a gun
If I realized how much good that I could do in this world
Then maybe, I'd still be with that goddamn perfect girl
[Chorus]
Why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why I wasted so much fucking time
Tell me why, tell me, tell me
