Why
Why are you so far?
Why does pain leave a mental scar?
Why are you there and I am here?
Why am I not impressed when I look in a mirror?
Why all the questions but no answers?
Why couldn't I become a beautiful dancer?
Why all of our Earth's mistakes?
Why do all of our hearts just break?
Why all the violence and why all the gangs?
Why all the upside-down crosses just hang?
Why all the sorrowful puddles of blood?
Why all the storms and why all the floods?
Why all the sickness who break us apart?
Why do these words come from my heart?
Why all the homeless with no place to go?
Why all the jocks just put on a show?
Why all the drugs and why all the booze?
Why all the innocent children with more than one bruise?
Why all the weapons and why all the fights?
Why does all our crime usually happen during nights?
Why all the rape and why all the death?
Why Marijuana, Cocaine, Heroine, and Meth?
Why are there orphanages with nothing but kids?
Why all the dieases like AIDS and SIDS?
Why only money is the only thing that means most?
Why all the accidents from coast to coast?
Why all the people in mental care?
Why all the people who forget about prayer?
Why all the lies and why all the cheating?
Why all the women suffering a beating?
Why all the drunks who get in a car?
Why all the drunks who start fights at a bar?
Why all the eyes who have to see this?
Why all the children who can't bear one wish?
Why all the petophiles who touch our kids?
Why all the people who think it's funny when people slip and skid?
Why all the religions who cause the world to fight?
Why not the peace and happiness delight?
Why all the fear and why all the words?
Why not leave it to beauty like rivers and birds?
