Why

Why do you make me go to sleep? 
Why do you make it hard to breathe? Why can't I be free? From everything that's killing me. 

I'm insane, but only for you. 
I'm in pain,
Cause loving you it like wanting to be famous; 
It will never work out. 

Why do you judge me?
Why can't you see me? 
Why can't I be numb?
From everything that is killing me. 

I'm insane, but only for you
I'm in pain,
Cause loving you is like wanting to be famous; 
It will never work out.

Why can't you love me? 
Why can't you set me free?
Why can't I be immune? 
From everything that is killing me.

Ooooo. .

I'm insane, but only for you 
I'm in pain,
Cause loving you is like wanting to be famous; 
It will never work out
(Never, never) 
It will never work out. 

So I'm going to detach.

Another outstanding piece my friend. It feels so good to let it out. There's a lyric for us broken hearted, " give the ocean what I took from you, so one day you can find it in the sand, and hold it in your hand, again" just felt like sharing that. I love your work.
