lyrics

Well theres a note on my door with the name unattached
but I'm not gonna read, it, not a word, not a scratch
no not yet
okay it says...
Well I don't even want to see you
not even at night, I don't want to hear your footsteps at all
I want peace and quiet, you don't mind?

She says Wah Wah!
I ask Why?
Wah Wah!
I ask it again
Why why why?

Well I have to watch every corner
I watch every step
like I'm supposed to be a get, like I'm doing anything yet
Oh! Where'd my sandwich go?
Do I really have to carry any, any regret?
When you go on and on about myself every single step
Everything I do
I don't know why oh why?

Cause Oh no, Nothing is wrong but you can't be who you are
Cause You know that love ain't free
Cause I heard it from you
I don't know whats wrong
Can't a man dance to a noon day storm
Hell no I want peace of mind
This ain't up to you.

Well i woke up to the music shaking like a cleft
But I don't know where I am, but I want to forget
I don't know where I came up with that? Ughh.
You think if I slug this corner again
Will you love me? I'll ask this question again and again.
Why Why Why?

Oh no, nothing is wrong but you can't be who you are
Cause You know that love is free
Its up to you
I don't know whats wrong
Can't a man dance to a noon day storm
Hell no I want peace of mind
This ain't up to you.

Oh no, nothing is wrong but you can't be who you are
Cause You know that love is free
Cause I heard it from you
I don't know whats wrong
Can't a man dance to a noon day storm
Hell no I want my peace of mind
This ain't up to you.

Oh no It can't be
cause you know that
It ain't up to you
Oh no It can't be
cause you know that
It ain't up to you
