lyrics

I heard the news that you were coming round, coming round
The radio said you would be on my side of town
And all I asked was, And all I asked was “Why?”, All I asked was “Why?”

Lost in the frequencies of mind waves buzzing round
In Hertz and Megahertz and it keeps bringing me down
But I’m too proud to, But I’m too proud to cry. All I asked was “Why?”

Why do we do this to us?
As if the pain’s not enough.
We had to go on complicating matters more.

Why do you do…?
Why do you do…?
Why do you do these things to…
these things to me?

I caught a glimpse while I was walking round, walking round
Of stains we left when we were out here painting the town
And all I asked was, And all I asked was “Why?”. All I asked was “Why?”

The red is rusty now it’s turning brown, turning brown
With all the oxygen the air that’s keeping me down
Back then we used to, Back then we used to fly, now all I ask is “Why?”

Why do we make all this fuss?
As if the pain’s not for us
We had to go on exaggerating matters more

Why do you do…?
Why do you do…?
Why do you do these things to…
these things to me?

The streets around here are littered with your love letters (love letters)
At least this rain makes hiding all the crying better (crying better)
I’m stuck here with these words I’m screaming never (never)
Will I let you back. I won’t let you in.

Why do you do…?
Why do you do…?
Why do you do these things to…
these things to me?

I heard the news that you were coming round, coming round
The radio said you would be on my side of town
I turned it off and I never questioned “Why?”
