Only God Knows Why Lyrics

Only God Knows Why

I've been sittin' here
trying to find myself
i get behind myself
i need
to rewind myself
looking for the payback
listen for the playback
they
say that every man
bleeds just like me
and i feel like number one
but
yet i'm last in line
i watch my younger son
and it helps to pass the
time
i take to many pills
it helps to ease the pain
i made a couple
dollar bills
but still i feel the same
everybody knows my name
they
say it way out loud
a lot of folks fuck with me
it's hard to hang out in
crowds
i guess that's the price you pay
to be some big shot like i
am
out stretched hands and one night stands
still i can't find
love

And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be
around

People don't know about the things
i say and do they don't
understand
about the relationship that i've
been through, it's been so
long
since i've been home i've been gone,
i've been gone for way too
long
maybe i forgot all the things I miss
Oh somehow I know there's more
to life
than this, I said it too many times
and i still stand firm you
get what
you put in and people get what they
deserve, still i ain't seen
mine
No I ain't seen mine
I've been giving just ain't been
gettin'
I've been walking down that line
So I think I'll keep
walking
with my head held high
i'll keep moving on and only God
knows
why

Only God... only God
Only God knows why
Only God... knows ...
why, why, why only
God knows why
Take me to the river hey
Take me to
the river
