How many times
Do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try and tell you
That's when you have to tell me
This kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to
Keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why
I've heard it said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides
Why can't you see
This boat is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Tell me
Why
