[Verse 1]
When I was thrown into this planet
I knew what's going on
I was messing with my pacifier
All day long
Oh and I then I was twenty
And i didn't have a clue
I was messing with my days
Trying to be true
Trying to dig out
The man that I could be
I was shouting loud to find this little me
He was stumbling through his days
What else then could he try
Looking for an answer

[Chorus]
Why this?
Why that?
And why?

[Verse 2]
Oh and I then i was thirty
I thought I knew what it was all about
Cruising in the river
Like a silver trout
Swimming in the ocean
Respected by the sharks
Overnight the ocean turned out to be
Too dark
When I was diving deeper
There was no light no more
I couldn't find the way out
The ocean has no door
And all the things that happened to pretty desperate guy
Leading to the question
[Chorus]
Why this?
Why that?
And why?

[Bridge]
I started to shout louder
What is this all about?
Struggling up the river
Not even half-way proud
For all the things that happened to this pretty desperate guy
Who was looking for an answer

[Chorus]
Why this?
Whay that?
And why?
