From the recording Too Sweet: Songs for Setting Boundaries
Lyrics
These days I’m in a better place
Every step intended, every movement mine
And I don’t see you because my eyes are focused forward
I’m not looking for another place to hide
So this is for the people passing by
who never bother asking why
They never get it
Why
I’ll never let them
in to tear me into pieces
make mistakes of all my reasons
Why
They never see it
Why
They don’t believe in
Why
The takeaway is that there’s no mistake
We’re all just walking through the mazes in our minds
And here’s the breakthrough: If you go looking for the truth
You know you’ll have to be uncomfortable with mine
So this is for the people passing by
who never bother asking why
They never get it
Why
I’ll never let them
in to tear me into pieces
make mistakes of all my reasons
Why
They never see it
Why
They don’t believe in
Why
I’d be alone; go away
Let them have their judgment day
I’d rather have my hell to pay than follow blind
And who knows where I’ll go. Let them fight over my soul
I’d rather never really know than close my mind
If God intended heaven
To be far beyond my question
Well then, why’d he leave it here for me to find?
So this is for the people passing by
who never bother asking why
They never get it
Why
I’ll never let them
in to tear me into pieces
make mistakes of all my reasons
Why
They never see it
Why
They don’t believe in
Why
They don’t believe in why
Why
They don’t believe in why
Why
Why?
