i wonder why life has to be so confusing, why
things can't always work out right, why
nothing is ever as it seems...

i wonder why people can't just be real, why
they have to wear so many masks, why
they can't just be who they ARE...

i wonder why love must be so elusive, why
it is always found in the last place you'd
expect it, why it can never be the way
you think it should be...

i wonder why it's so easy to be envious, why
we can't be happy with what we have, why
we always think that what we have
is not enough...

i wonder why we spend so much time longing
for the past, why we think everything good
that happened before is lost, why we can't grow
from both the good experiences and the bad...

i wonder why there always has to be that one
person in my life that i can never reach,
why i can hold him in my arms and still
not be close to him, why i give all i have
and get nothing in return...

i wonder why i keep on trying, why
i don't just give it up, why
i can't accept reality..,

i wonder why this hurts so much, why he's
still the one who has my heart, why i can't
just move on from him...

i wonder why i love him so much when i know
he will never feel the same, why i'm willing
to give all i have when he can only give so little, why
he is still the reason i breathe...

i wonder why i can't just accept myself
as i am, why i can't have a good life
without him, why i can never be enough
on my own...

i wonder why i can't love myself
as much as i love him...
