Oh Why Oh Why

It took you quite a while to see

Just exactly

What you did to me

You could not open up your eyes

Cuz for years

You'd been blinded

By your own lies

And I ain't never

Felt this way before

So alone, so alone

And wonderin what for

Weren't you the one that up and left

Though I did you wrong

Didn't you tell me I'm the best

I know I might not be perfect

I made mistakes

But who doesn't

And I don't deserve it



Love, love, love

I don't believe it

If you ask me again

I could leave it

It's a lie

That someone once started

To tell the innocent

And the brokenhearted

So why even try

A four letter word

So venomous, a curse

Of all untruths, the worst

Oh why, oh why



What happened

Once we promised forever

Who did what to who first

And now we're not together

It never depended on whether

I did you right or did you wrong

Or on that lie, that curse

It depended on how

Much you could control me

So when I said I had enough

You left me here

Broken, hopeless, and livin solely

On emptiness and ackwardness

So.... love, love, love

Could you have at least once

Not faked it

Meant what you said,

Kept a promise,

Never to break it

For a while,

I could barely take it



But now... love, love, love

Matters not

And... neither do you



Love, love, love

I don't believe it

If you ask me again

I could leave it

It's a lie

That someone once started

To tell the innocent

And the brokenhearted

So why even try

A four letter word

So venomous, a curse

Of all untruths, the worst

Oh why, oh why



I think maybe of all the words

You told me

Nothing mattered less

Than that curse of a word

And no moment mattered less

Than when you'd hold me

So hold on to something else

And remember

Every time you're lonely yourself

That he ain't half of what I am

And he can't love you like I can

Or like I could have

How I always meant to and tried to

And if you'd have let me

How I would have



So... love, love, love

Love, love, love

I don't believe it

If you ask me again

I could leave it

It's a lie

That someone once started

To tell the innocent

And the brokenhearted

So why even try

A four letter word

So venomous, a curse

Of all untruths, the worst

Oh why, oh why



Oh why, oh why, oh why

Oh why, oh why, oh why

Why do I ever try

Why did I believe your lies

Oh tell me.... why
