Tell Me Why

Hook (catchy, slightly pleading):
Tell me why you hide when I give you all my time,
Tell me why your love feelin’ stuck between the lines.
Tell me why you run when I’m standin’ by your side,
Tell me why… tell me why… girl, just tell me why.

Verse 1 (emotional but smooth):
Phone buzz late night, who you textin’ on the low?
I ain’t tryna press, but the silence always shows.
You say it’s nothing, but the vibe don’t lie,
Eyes look away, but your hands can’t hide.

Truth burn hotter than the liquor in my veins,
Every little secret got me questionin’ my place.
You say you need space, but you call when it’s dark,
Tell me why you keep playin’ games with my heart.

Hook (repeat, layered harmonies):
Tell me why you hide when I give you all my time,
Tell me why your love feelin’ stuck between the lines.
Tell me why you run when I’m standin’ by your side,
Tell me why… tell me why… girl, just tell me why.

⸻

Verse 2 (drill bounce, more confrontational):
Look, I ain’t blind, I can see the way you move,
Say you loyal, but the proof ain’t in the proof.
Don’t gaslight, girl, the night still speak,
Love ain’t strong if the trust come weak.

I’m the one who pull up when you break down,
The one you call when you lost, need to stay round.
So why the frontin’, why the walls so high?
Tell me why, baby, don’t feed me no lies.

⸻

Bridge (soft breakdown, moody pads):
Is it fear, is it lust, is it pain from the past?
Is it me, is it you, is it something we can’t grasp?
I just need truth, girl, don’t need disguise,
Late night tears got me beggin’ for replies.

⸻

Hook (final, bigger with adlibs):
Tell me why you hide when I give you all my time,
Tell me why your love feelin’ stuck between the lines.
Tell me why you run when I’m standin’ by your side,
Tell me why… tell me why… girl, just tell me why.

Emotional melodic drill with moody R&B undertones, bouncy 808s, airy pads, and late-night tension in the vocals.
