[Verse 1]
Things get clear when I feel free
When what happens next comes easily
When gentle hands give life to me
When your eyes fill with tiny tears

[Verse 2]
When I'm this still, you are my life
(When I'm this still, you are my life)
So at ease in the midnight sky
(So at ease in the midnight sky)
But my insides will look like war
(But my insides will look like war)
Paralysed except through my thought

[Chorus]
So, why so sad?
You live and you love
So, why so sad?
Dependent on above
Searching for the Dead Sea scrolls
So, why?
So, why so sad?

[Verse 3]
My smile's as real as a hyena's
(My smile's as real as a hyena's)
Burns an expressway to my skull
(Burns an expressway to my skull)
But I'll stick myself together again
Spirit's so low that I no longer pretend
[Chorus]
So, why so sad?
You live and you love
So, why so sad?
Dependent on above
Searching for the Dead Sea scrolls
So, why?
So, why so sad?

[Organ Solo]

[Chorus]
So, why so sad?
You live and you love
So, why so sad?
Dependent on above
Searching for the Dead Sea scrolls
So, why?
So, why so sad?

[Outro]
So, why?
So, why so sad?
So, why?
So, why so sad?
So, why?
So, why so sad?
So, why?
So, why so sad?
