why why why

Driving home at 8:05
I sit in silence
Not a song could help me through this

Tears fall at 8:09
I gave You all my faith
Just to lose everything

And I don't get it
I've been singing so loud
With my hands high
But I'm dying inside
Why why why?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And every single night
I've been sobbin' on the bathroom floor
And You were silent
Why why why?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
How much can a heart take
Without knowing why?
Why why?

I trusted You in that hospital room
But at the final breath
You cut the last thread

And I don't get it
I've been singing so loud
With my hands high
But I'm dying inside
Why why why?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And every single night
I've been sobbin' on the bathroom floor
And You were silent
Why why why?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
How much can a heart take
Without knowing why?

Why are all my friends depressed?
And why's the church ignoring them?
Why'd my generation grow up
Just to spend a lifetime healing?
Why is there disease and illness?
Why is my dad in a grave?
Why did I receive a call from
A little girl dying of AIDS?
Why do You even allow this?
What did she ever do to You?
How can You just sit in silence?
But who am I to question You?

And I don't get it
Oh I'm broken
Jesus, I trust You are in this
I've been singing so loud
With my hands high
But I'm dying inside
Why why why?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And every single night
I've been sobbin' on the bathroom floor
And You were silent
Why why why?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
How much can a heart take
Without knowing

Why? (Why are all my friends depressed?)
(And why's the church ignoring them?)
Why why why? (Why'd my generation grow up)
(Just to spend a lifetime healing?)
Why why why? (Why is there disease and illness?)
Oh oh oh (Why is my dad in a grave?)
Why why why? (Why did I receive a call from)
(A little girl dying of AIDS?)
