"Tell Me Why" lyrics

It was wildfire dream, it was lightning in a bottle, it was nothing like you've ever seen
It was pedal to the metal, it was dancing with the devil, it was better than it should've been...
And I don't know where the wheels came off but they did
I feel is flying off the track
There's a hole in the bottom of the ship that we're sinking on...
There ain't no coming back

I can try to give a little more than I have to give
All I need is a why, just a single damn reason and I'll give it all
I've been beating my head against the wall for weeks now
Looking for a sign that don't lead to a way out
Not saying goodbye ain't enough of a reason why, so tell me why

Why's the bed gone cold, why's the bottle ran dry
Why's every truth sound like a lie?
The blame gets thrown, the flame won't light
Why do all good things have to die?
'Cause we've been going through hell tryna save ourselves
But it looks like you and me ain't got much left
Hanging on by a thread baby, so what's it gonna be?

I can try to give a little more than I have to give
All I need is a why, just a single damn reason and I'll give it all
I've been beating my head against the wall for weeks now
Looking for a sign that don't lead to a way out
Not saying goodbye ain't enough of a reason why, so tell me why

Baby it's time to lay it on the line
Are we gonna do or die?
Are we gonna fall or fly?
I ain't sure what we're still fighting for
Can't hold on anymore, waiting on the call

I can try to give a little more than I have to give
All I need is a why, just a single damn reason and I'll give it all
I've been beating my head against the wall for weeks now
Looking for a sign that don't lead to a way out
Not saying goodbye ain't enough of a reason why, so tell me why
