No one could ever just take a chance on their lives
No one could ever just say the words on their minds
Breakdown the bulletproof lonely stare
You give whenever you’re dreaming
Angels are tired of living life
Watching the way you’ve been treated
Six days since you were in Michigan
Hoping for someone to tell you
Those thoughtless questions that you need to know.

((Chorus))
Don’t ask me why
My mouth is dry
Can’t find the words
I must confide
Don’t ask me why
My tongue is tied
Without you here
I can’t survive.

She read the Robert Frost paperback in July
He wrote that sorry’s so hard to say
When you’re right
Breakdown the bulletproof lonely stare
You give whatever you’re dreaming
Angels are tired of living life
Watching the way you’ve been treated
Six days since you were in Michigan
Hoping for someone to tell you
Those thoughtless questions that you need to know.

((Chorus 2x))

Don’t...ask...me...why
Don’t ask me why!
