Why Only

Verse 1

I hate myself, I hate these scars,

everything in me can’t hold this heart.

I believed that love would be my light,

but it broke—and took me down inside.

Chorus

Why only does it hurt this way?

Why does it tear my soul each day?

I believed in something true,

but all that’s left is shades of blue.

Why only, why only?

Verse 2

So blind to hope, so blind to trust,

I built my world on fragile dust.

No heartbeat sounds the way it did,

just silence where the fire lived.

Chorus

Why only does it hurt this way?

Why does it tear my soul each day?

I believed in something true,

but all that’s left is shades of blue.

Why only, why only?

Bridge

Maybe I’m just a shadow,

an echo of myself.

But somewhere in the distance,

there’s still another “else.”

Chorus (soft)

Why only does it hurt this way?

Why does it tear my soul each day?

I believed in something true,

but all that’s left is shades of blue.

Why only, why only…
