[Verse 1]
Death comes by sacred vision
Not something in the night
Friends dying in crash collision
Hide the cross to be polite

[Verse 2]
Hand of death in accusation from
The body trapped in the box
From where'd the stains on my palm come
Say a prayer as time we mock

[Pre-Chorus]
Black curtains fall on an empty soul
While I stand back and watch the tears roll

[Chorus]
Why didn't I tell you
When I had the chance to tell you
Why didn't I show you
I wish I could go back to show you
Why

[Verse 3]
Field of dreams in desolation
The memories of wasted time
Sea of hope drowned in his coffin
Depending on my choice of mind
[Verse 4]
Until my spirit passes through
The realm of immortality
I won't know what lies for you
The choice you made for eternity

[Pre-Chorus]
Black curtains fall on an empty soul
While I stand back and watch the tears roll

[Chorus]
Why didn't I tell you
When I had the chance to tell you
Why didn't I show you
I wish I could go back to show you
Why

[Spoken Word]

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Why didn't I tell you
When I had the chance to tell you
Why didn't I show you
I wish I could go back to show you
Why
Why
[Outro]
Why didn't I tell you
Why didn't I tell you
Why didn't I tell you
Why didn't I tell you
