"Anthem Of Why" lyrics

"Anthem Of Why"

Joe
Lives with his folks at home
Smokes little plants he grows
Cool for a kid, but today is the big 3 0
It seems
All of his hopes and dreams
Got lost in habitual fiends
Now he is crying tears of what could have been

He is saying why oh why
Did my life pass by
Could it have been that all this time saying why
You shoulda said how

30 candles you are blowin
None of which deserve a light
The only music you've been playin
Is the anthem of why
Always dreamin never doin
So they never did take flight
Still the music that you're playin
Is the anthem of why

Oh oh ohh

Stacey
Dreamt of becoming a pop queen
Suddenly when she turned 15
Everything changed
She found out she had one on the way
And so she
Took all the posters of Britney
Mariah, Beyonce and Whitney
And with her dreams she threw them all away

She was saying why oh why
If not for that night
Could it all this time saying why
You shoulda said how

All the hopin all the wishin
Girl you traded for a night
And the music that you're playin
Is the anthem of why
Now you're feelin all your dreamin
Was just a waste of time
So the song that you're singin
Is the anthem of why

Always saying why oh why
Did my life pass by
Could it be that all this time saying why
You shoulda said how

All the hopin all the prayin
Know they never should have died
But they faded
When you traded
How
For the anthem of why
Gotta dream it
Gotta feel it if
If you ever wanna fly
Never sing it never play it
It's the anthem of why

It's the anthem of why
