9. Tell Me Why (6:12)
I've been losing myself in anger
So much broken by the rage
Nothing could take my mind off
How to make them pay
Killing myself for nothing
And the pain will go away
Losing myself to madness
And the game's been played
If I could turn the hands of time
I would , but here I am
Tell me why am I still here when it's all gone
I'm living with the ghosts of yesterday
Tell me why I am still trying to hold on
I've got to tear it down to let it go
I'm too tired to keep on trying
But I'm spellbound till the end
Knowing that there's no closure
For my wars inside
I've buried the good and evil
Only memories left behind
I am the one still standing
I will live to tell
If I could turn the hands of time
I would, but here I am
(Here I am!)
Tell me why am I still here when it's all gone
I'm living with the ghosts of yesterday
Tell me why I am still trying to hold on
I've got to tear it down to let it go
Tell me why I'm wasting away
Tell me how to break my own chains
‘Cause I'm losing after all
Tell me how to escaped this grim fate
Tell me how to face one more day
‘Cause I'm wasting away
It's all gone silent
I'm searching for fire
Nothing to fight for alone
Tell me why am I still here when it's all gone
(When it's all gone, when it's all gone)
I'm living with the ghosts of yesterday
(Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone)
Tell me why I am still trying to hold on
I've got to tear it down to let it go
So much broken by the rage
Nothing could take my mind off
How to make them pay
Killing myself for nothing
And the pain will go away
Losing myself to madness
And the game's been played
If I could turn the hands of time
I would , but here I am
Tell me why am I still here when it's all gone
I'm living with the ghosts of yesterday
Tell me why I am still trying to hold on
I've got to tear it down to let it go
I'm too tired to keep on trying
But I'm spellbound till the end
Knowing that there's no closure
For my wars inside
I've buried the good and evil
Only memories left behind
I am the one still standing
I will live to tell
If I could turn the hands of time
I would, but here I am
(Here I am!)
Tell me why am I still here when it's all gone
I'm living with the ghosts of yesterday
Tell me why I am still trying to hold on
I've got to tear it down to let it go
Tell me why I'm wasting away
Tell me how to break my own chains
‘Cause I'm losing after all
Tell me how to escaped this grim fate
Tell me how to face one more day
‘Cause I'm wasting away
It's all gone silent
I'm searching for fire
Nothing to fight for alone
Tell me why am I still here when it's all gone
(When it's all gone, when it's all gone)
I'm living with the ghosts of yesterday
(Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone)
Tell me why I am still trying to hold on
I've got to tear it down to let it go
