Tell Me Why

I took a chance
I took a shot
And you might think I'm bullet-proof
But I'm not

You took a swing
I took it hard
And down here from the ground
I see who you are

I'm sick and tired of your attitude
I'm feelin like I don't know you
You tell me that you love me
Then,cut me down

And I need you like a heartbeat
But you know
You got a meanstreak
Makes me run for cover when you're around

And here's to you and your temper
Yes, I remember what you said last night
And I know that you see
What you're doing to me

Tell me why?

You could write a book on how to
Ruin someone's perfect daiaaeey
I get so confused and frustrated
Forget what I'm trying to say, oh

I'm sick and tired of your reasons
I got no one to believe in
You tell me that you want me
Then, push me around

And I need you like a heartbeat
But you know
You got a meanstreak
Makes me run for cover when you're around

Here's to you and your temper
Yes, I remember what you said laast niight
And I know that you see
What you're doing to me

Tell me why?

Whyyy do you have to make me feel small?
So you can feel whole insiide?
Whyyy do you have to put down my dreams?
So you're the only thign on my mind?

I'm sick and tired of your attitude
I'm feeling I don't know you
You tell me that you love me
Then, cut me down

I'm sick and tired of your reasons
I got no one to believe in
You ask me for my love
Then, you push me around

Here's to you and your temper
Yes, I remember what you said last niight
And I know that you see
What you're doing to me

Tell me why? Why? Tell me why?

I take a step back
Let you go
I told you I'm not bulletproof
Now you know...
