I could see her fall from grace   Like a movie star too old to change her life   With a bottle by her hand   Every night she went away   I would pray for someone else to change her life   If she wouldn't change for me      Tell me why   Please tell me why   You stole my life      Tell me why      Just drown her fear in the same old song   Everytime you came back frozen deep inside   Was it my love that you feared   I was a misfit all the way   Never there to help me grow and change my life   Then you smiled and walked away      Tell me why   Please tell me why   You stole my life      Tell me why      All the little things she said to me   (said to me)   Were broken thoughts and tainted dreams   (tainted dreams)   If she can't take these memories   It doesn't change a thing   (it doesn't change a thing)   Every little word she said to me   (said to me)   That broke my heart and stayed with me   (stayed with me)   I wish that she could hear me scream   She never changed a thing      Tell me why   Please tell me why   You stole my life   Life      Tell me why      This can't go on   This can't go on   This can't go on   This can't go on   This can't go on
