Why Did You?
Verse 1:
All this time you lied to me
I cried when I found out
You threw your life away
Honey, you let go, you let go
All this time you could've spared
You drowned it in the drain
Chewed out your money and killed your vibe
You lost control of your life
Pre-Chorus:
A machine can't fix your broken heart
If you even tried, I'd break apart
Chorus:
If I could take back those memories
I'd go and try again
If I could boil down my thoughts
I'd go and boil them all
If I could go and retrieve yourself
I'd go and tell you
Post-Chorus:
Why did you? (x2)
Verse 2:
All this time we could've shared
Life wasted it all away
It tore at my heart seams
There goes our hopes and dreams
All this time you could've saved
You drowned it with your drugs
Little did you know, they ruin the show
I couldn't watch that anymore
Pre-Chorus:
A machine can't repair your fallen soul
If you even tried, I'd just let it all go
Chorus:
If I could take back those memories
I'd go and try again
If I could boil down my thoughts
I'd go and boil them all
If I could go and retrieve yourself
I'd go and tell you
Post-Chorus:
Why did you? (x2)
Bridge:
After all the times I sat outside with you
Did they mean anything to you?
After all the tears I shed when you passed through
Why did you do this?
Why did you?
You left me in a blur of agony
Post-Bridge:
If I could take back those memories
If I could take back all of our dreams
I'll just never live with those remedies
Throw me back the pair of your smoker jeans
(You don't need them no more)
Outro:
I chose the path that's right for my mend
You'll be in my heart up until the end
But I'll ask, "Why did you?"
Oh yeah
Why Did You?

all of your comments mean a lot! This is my second favorite song I've written ever.
