"Wanna Know Why" lyrics

We all have things we think that we can hide away
But you're too far gone, and the edges have begun to fray
You seem to think you might have covered up your tracks
But you've lost your way, and there's no getting back
Has your past caught up with you at last?

You can't run, not this time
Yeah, I know, you're sick and tired
But here we stand eye to eye
And I wish we had more time, God knows I've tried
And I just want to know why

You don't see how everyone already knew
And it goes to show how bad it's got its hooks in you
Wake up kid, 'cause this is overdue

You can't run, not this time
Yeah, I know, you're sick and tired
But here we stand eye to eye
And I wish we had more time, God knows I've tried
And I just want to know why

All along you've found this life
And it's all you've ever known
Give me one reason why
Have you ever stopped to think
What lies beyond that road
And all you leave behind?

You can't run, not this time
Yeah, I know, you're sick and tired
But here we stand eye to eye
And I wish we had more time, God knows I've tried
And I just want to know why
I wanna know why
Wanna know why
Gotta know why
