don't ask

don't ask me why
i'm sitting here all alone
don't ask me why
i don't pick up the phone
don't ask me why
i don't look so well
don't ask me why

don't ask me why
i'm ten feet off the ground
don't ask me why
i'm dancing like a clown
don't ask me why
you'll never make me tell
don't ask me why
cos you know me too well

don't ask me why
i'm trying so hard
don't ask me if
it's time to give up
don't ask me when
i think it's too late
don't ask me why

and don't tell me that
it's just another day
don't tell me that
it's gonna be ok
don't tell me now
that you'll be on your way
don't tell me now
cos i need you to stay

don't tell me that
i'm in way over my head
don't tell me now
that i should take a rest instead
don't tell me that
i don't have a chance in hell
don't tell me

don't ask me why
i'm standing in the rain
don't ask me if
i still feel any pain
don't ask me why
i don't try to save myself
don't ask me why
cos you know me too well
