I'm keeping it real

Some of us hurt

While some of us feel

Swallow it down

Like a bitter pill

Rewinding the past

Like a broken reel

Playing it back just

To see what's real

But I can't keep

Living like this anymore

I'm done fighting

Not evening the score

WHY, WHY

WHY do we keep this game?

Over and over

It's all the same

WHY, WHY

WHY do we tear each other apart?

Time and time again

Breaking each other's hearts

WHY, WHY

WHY are we stuck in this fight?

It's complete insanity

That's the truth, ALL RIGHT!

We say the past is the past

But we cling too tight

Till we're numb

From the endless fight

I'm packing my bags

Taking my leave

Escaping the chains

That we can't unweave

I love you deeper

Than words can say

But I won't be trapped

In this endless fray

I'm walking away

To find my own way

In the chaos, where do we begin?

When every pattern

Is a cycle we're trapped in

Lost in a maze of our own design

Searching for answers we can't find

WHY, WHY

WHY do we keep this game?

Over and over

It's all the same

WHY, WHY

WHY do we tear each other apart?

Time and time again

Breaking each other's hearts

WHY, WHY

WHY are we stuck in this fight?

It's complete insanity

That's the truth, ALL RIGHT!

So here's to the end

Of this endless spree

We've faced the madness

Now we're free

No more insanity

For you or me
