Why

Every time I open my eyes

I bear witness to the endless suffering

Horrified by the monsters we've become

I'm beginning to realise

We're a cancer consuming everything

Doing damage that cannot be undone

Oh

And I don't know why?

We're allowed to survive

And I don't know why we're alive?

Tell me, why?

And I don't know why?

Our humanity has died

Can anyone tell me why?

Tell me, why?

On the edge of destruction now

Every day, getting closer to the end

As we stand there and watch what we have done

As every corner of the world is shaken

I feel the hearts of mothers breaking

Will we even have the strength to carry on?

And I don't know why?

We're allowed to survive

And I don't know why we're alive?

Tell me, why?

And I don't know why?

Our humanity has died

Can anyone tell me why?

Tell me, why?

This can't be all that we know

Can we build a better tomorrow?

'Cause our time is borrowed

There's nowhere left to run

This can't be all that we know

Can we build a better tomorrow?

No time left to borrow

And I don't know why?

We're allowed to survive

And I don't know why we're alive?

Tell me, why?

And I don't know why?

Our humanity has died

Can anyone tell me why?

Tell me, why?

And I don't know why?

We're allowed to survive

And I don't know why we're alive?

Tell me, why?

And I don't know why?

Our humanity has died

Can anyone tell me why?

Tell me, why?
