Tell Me Why
Unraveling Life's Mysteries: 'Tell Me Why' by Unwritten Law
Lyrics
Hey mister god
Expressing a plea or question to a higher power, possibly seeking guidance or understanding.
Can you tell me what's wrong
Asking for insight into what is going wrong in the speaker's life.
With my life and all of it's confusions
Acknowledging the complexity and confusion in the speaker's life.
Why did she leave me
Questioning the reason behind a significant other leaving.
With nothing to show
Expressing a sense of loss and emptiness after the departure.
Except fro a shallow disillusion
Feeling deceived or disillusioned by a superficial or false understanding of a relationship.
Cause I can't seem to figure why you feel this way
Expressing confusion about the emotions or intentions of the higher power (god).
And I guess I'm to blame
Accepting responsibility and admitting fault for the current situation.
And if I told you that I didn't care about this place
Suggesting a lack of concern or attachment to the current circumstances.
Would you think of me the same
Questioning whether the perception of the speaker would change if they expressed indifference.
Could you please tell me why
Repetition of the request for an explanation or understanding from a higher power.
Could you please tell me why
Continuation of the plea for an explanation.
Could you please tell me why
Reiteration of the request for understanding.
Why I can never find the answer to something I will never understand
Expressing frustration at the inability to comprehend a particular situation in life.
Could you please tell me why
Repetition of the plea for an answer or insight.
I sit back thinking that there once was a time
Reflecting on a past time when everything seemed perfect.
A time where everything was perfect
Acknowledging that the past perfection is no longer present.
It seems the things we shared were so far behind
Noting that shared experiences are distant and fading.
Behind but we're never getting closer
Describing the lack of progress in rekindling past connections.
Cause I can feel your shadow hanging over me
Feeling the presence and influence of someone from the past.
And I'm just peering through the light
Struggling to see clearly through the emotional weight of the past.
And now I realize you never really cared for me
Realizing that the person from the past may not have genuinely cared for the speaker.
Will I ever see
Pondering the possibility of seeing the truth about the past.
Could you please tell me why
Repetition of the plea for an explanation or understanding from a higher power.
Could you please tell me why
Continuation of the plea for an explanation.
Could you please tell me why
Reiteration of the request for understanding.
Why I can never find the person
Expressing difficulty in finding a specific person despite earnest efforts.
That I've tried so hard to find
Expressing the challenge of finding someone the speaker has been searching for.
Could you please tell me why
Repetition of the plea for an explanation or understanding from a higher power.
