Tell Me Why (Gather the Good)
Those cars in the driveway were and you (?)
those houses in the hills they're lying empty and haunted
'cause that shirt on your back can't keep out cold
'cause you know from now on your soul has been sold
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Oh mirror on the wall won't you tell me where to find it
oh mirror on the wall won't you set me free
like(?) your reflection is everything that you wanted
because the man in the mirror is not the man to be
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Smile to your heart
breathe in the truth
open your eyes and gather the good
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Oh won't you tell me why
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't lead those lies
those houses in the hills they're lying empty and haunted
'cause that shirt on your back can't keep out cold
'cause you know from now on your soul has been sold
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Oh mirror on the wall won't you tell me where to find it
oh mirror on the wall won't you set me free
like(?) your reflection is everything that you wanted
because the man in the mirror is not the man to be
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Smile to your heart
breathe in the truth
open your eyes and gather the good
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't look in my eye
oh won't you tell me why
you can't believe those lies
Oh won't you tell me why
Oh won't you tell me why
you can't lead those lies
