lyrics

Some roads you just can’t go down again.
They still haunt me, never coming to an end.
Desperate eyes betray the disarray in my lies,
Why ask why?

Laughing singing songs and telling stories,
Running from love and growing old,
The mirror is retrospection on a one way road
And it hurts...

And yet I keep writing histories,
Counting years when I still got time.
Peeling back the memories,
Running away from being alive.

Tis the season to fight our civil wars,
Fantasies and dreams all run their course.
Why does isolation seem so sweet in song?
I'll go along.

Life, it seems, fell to wolves and thieves,
History’s still clinging like shadows in the eaves,
On a one way trip down a two way street.

And yet I keep writing histories,
Counting years when I still got time.
Peeling back the memories,
Running away from being alive.

Blue and yellow are still my favorite colors.
Got regret and remorse I can’t forget,
Quiet beside the road watching lives come and go,
Why ask why
Why ask why
Why ask why
Why ask why
Why ask why
Why ask why
