Why Me?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You ever meet somebody with all the potential in the world?
But, they just cannot seem to get it together
And it is always one thing after the next
Why me? Why?
And they act like they cannot do anything to change it
Well I figure it is all up to you
There she goes, she is crying again
There is no one to console her
Seems she has no friends
And every time the walls start closing in
She just lays there so helpless
Until they smash her thin
Then she thinks
Why me, why me?
You keep on crying, crying
And you do not ever give it a chance
Always the victim of circumstance
Time you take life into your own hands
At the end you will begin again
She is a fool, she is at it again
Knows it always ends badly but still she pretends
This time will be different and no one can obstruct
The bright future that she is built and others bad luck
But she says
Why me, why me?
You keep on crying, crying
And you do not ever give it a chance
Always the victim of circumstance
Time you take life into your own hands
At the end you will begin again
She is always running, running from herself
Unwilling to face the reality of things
She is oh-so capable of turning the tables
Making her way, all she has to say is no
No, I am not going let you hurt me
Anymore
Yeah I know I am the one who let you hurt me
Before, but
I will not be crying
There will not be no more why me!
Everything you do comes back
And sometimes two times
Harder than it started
You cannot escape you
Get back what you gave and
Now you are broken hearted
What is the use of crying
If you are not trying to change your situation?
If you let go of your frustration
Maybe then you will see
You will not be crying
There will not be no more why me!
No, I am not going let you hurt me
Anymore.
Yeah I know I am the one who let you hurt me
Before, but
I will not be crying
There will not be no more why me!
