Why is a question we often ask With each and every task We feel the need to know why Without reason and without rhyme In every loss and every gain Whether we're happy or in pain We feel we need a reason or place Somewhere in this empty space To point a finger or place the blame To explain why things don’t remain the same We search both high and low Looking for answers we think we need to know Unable to accept the fact The answers aren't always exact To what we need nor what we want to hear Nor is it always crystal clear So we fight to find something new Doing everything we can do Cuz the truth we can't accept And bounds tend to get overstepped You find yourself full of doubt Questioning any and everything you thought you knew something about But sooner or later you will see Everything is as it should be Sometimes it's hard to wrap your mind around But the answers can always be found It's not always who, when, where, why, or what But to find the answers to that you must open up You'll have to search deep down inside Let go of your anger and your pride Cuz there is where no lies can hide Let go and let your heart be your guide Take a long hard look in the mirror There the answers you seek will become clearer Look yourself in the eyes There you won't find any lies Listen to your own heart speak And there…there you will find the truths you seek!!!
