why lyrics

it seems i'm living in a lost and far away place
it feels alittle bit like sleep
no fun, no motivation, a simple far away state
when days are over they repeat

i glance around / become aware that this is not my home
i try to climb the barriers but i'm forced into a room
a simple scream of frustration / i'm tied and left alone
and i just want the fog to lift and to be back where i'm known

[Chorus]
and i say why -- have i been put away
and i say why -- i'm locked and put away
and i say why -- can this be what i wanted
and i say why -- i want to get away and i say why

it seems we're broken pieces tossed into the waste bin
we're all the shattered parts of dreams
one step, a simple process to get you firm and in place
when they take over is that peace?

i glance out there, the population all safe and in their homes
it just ain't fair the complications that strap me to my room
i try to scream, the frustration it tears inside my bones
can i resist the temptation, i feel i'm all alone

[Chorus]

and i say why and i say why and i say why
have i been put away
and i say why and i say why and i say why
i'm locked and put away
and i say why and i say why and i say why
can this be what i wanted
and i say why and i say why and i say why
i want to get away but i ask why.
