Lyrics

GABRIEL

This is it my world is coming to a screeching end
And all that?s left is my will to live, my innocence
Memories; a half written book deliver my best years.
And as I sit here, hands to my face I fight tears and invite disbelief
It?s about to get harder now things are bound to get harder now.
The thought is so cold I?m afraid to believe. Tell me?

WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY
WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY?D THIS EVER HAPPEN TO ME?

I fell as though I have been marked by the devil
Scarred with a razor and branded like cattle to linger.
To suffer no longer to listen to laughter but tortured by screams.
And I?m bitter; and I?m pissed off as hell at the system that caters
To people like you and your money; your own masters.
Spoiled rotten cocky, bold-faced bastards tell me,

WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY
WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY?D THIS EVER HAPPEN TO ME?

I can?t believe it?s been two years
And for the honor I?m right here.
Even though I can?t sleep at night,
Even though I?m afraid to dream at night
Time and time again I wake up in cold sweat.
I just can?t accept that it?s over the life that I lived and I loved
Is just over. But I have to be strong for myself and hold on to what?s
Left of these things that I have here to offer.
To remember the things that made me
Exactly who I am and what I am
Supposed to believe in without
Pretending I?m happy with this
Or my loss I just sit and I cry
Tell me,

WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY
WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY?D THIS EVER HAPPEN TO ME?
