Opened up my journal to a page
Everything that hurts me's still the same
Feels like there's nothing new for me to say
Why, why, why?
Why, why, why?
Sweating through the sheets, shakin' in bed
Visions of her naked in my head
But I went off and chose myself instead
Why, why, why?
Ease my mind
I don't know why
I-, I don't know, I don't know why
Why, why, why?
I stepped off the stage with nothing left
All the lights were f*ckin' with my head
But here I am, singing songs again
Why, why, why?
Ease my mind
I don't know why
I-, I don't know, I don't know why
Why, why, why?
Why, why, why?
Feels like everything goes round and round and round and round and round it goes
Feels like everything goes round and round and round and round and round it
Thought I was about to be a father
Shook me to the core, I'm still a kid
Sometimes I still cry out for my mother
Why, why, why?
Why, why, why?
I don't know why
I-, I don't know, I don't know why
Why, why, why?
Why, why, why?
Feels like everything goes round and round and round and round and round it goes
Feels like everything goes round and round and round and round and round it goes
When your touch walks me home When you taste this good When the glitter is gold And it feels like it should
When you're so in love And your souls touch But it's still not enough Where does it go? (Whoa) Where does it go? Nobody knows (nobody, nobody) Where the love goes
You're an amateur drunk and everyone knows it But, f*ck, you're the one and I live for those moments (hm, whoa) When the bottle is open, anything can happen Flyin' too close to the sun
When you're so in love (oh, when you're so in love) And your souls touch But it's still not enough Where does it go? (Whoa, hey) Where does it go? Nobody knows (hey, nobody) Where the love goes
Sweet is the sun
Warm is the rain
June is the month
Free is the day
My hands still shakin'
My mind's still racin'
My heart's still breakin' in two
I'm still changin'
My friends stay patient
My mother still calls for the news
Isn't that enough?
Isn't that enough?
Isn't that enough?
Gone are the birds
Close are the tears
A house full of love
Space for your fears
My hands still shakin'
My mind's still racin'
My heart's still breakin' in two
I'm still changin'
My friends stay patient
My mother still calls for the news
Isn't that enough?
Isn't that enough?
Isn't that enough?
Honestly
It's been a while since I thought of you
In the end, we didn't talk much
I didn't know what you were goin' through
I'm sorry that I wasn't there
To hug your mama at the funeral
Brian said he broke down
But he promised it was beautiful
When we were young
We didn't care
We shot for the stars
I'll see you up there
You had a heart of gold (yeah)
You had a heart of gold
You left too soon, it was out of your control
Underneath your skin and bone
You had a heart of gold
I didn't cry
I didn't even feel the pain
And then it hit me all at once
When we talked about you yesterday
When we were young (when we were young)
We didn't care (we didn't care)
We shot for the stars (we shot for the stars)
I'll see you up there
You had a heart of gold (yeah)
You had a heart of gold
You left too soon, it was out of your control
Underneath your skin and bone
You had a heart of gold
When we were young
We didn't care
We shot for the stars
I'll see you up there (you had a heart of gold)
When we were young (ooh)
We didn't care (we didn't care)
We shot for the stars
I'll see you up there
You had a heart of gold
(Yeah)
