- Songwriters: Ed Roland
(Why)
You're now thirsty
Walkin' in the desert all alone
(Why)
You're now searching
Lost in isolation from your soul
On the bullets you bite
From the pain you request
You're finding them harder to digest
When the answers you seek
Are the ones you destroy
Your anger's well deployed
(Why)
Why can't you listen?
(Why)
Why can't you hear?
(Why)
Why can't you listen as love screams everywhere?
(Why)
You know hunger
Feeding your mind with selfishness
(Why)
You now wander
Aimlessly around your consciousness
When your prophecies fail
When your thoughts become weak
And silence creates necessity
When you're clothing yourself
With the shields of despair
Your courage now impaired
(Why)
Why can't you listen?
(Why)
Why can't you hear?
(Why)
Why can't you listen as love screams everywhere?
You crucify all honesty no signs you see, do you believe
And all your words just twist and turn, reviving just to crash and burn
Fighting till the bitter end if only your heart could open
Open, listen
(Why)
Why can't you listen?
(Why)
Why can't you hear?
(Why)
Why can't you listen as love screams everywhere?
(Why)
Why can't you listen?
(Why)
Why can't you hear?
(Why)
Why can't you listen as love screams everywhere?
