Why are we here?
Why are we here?
You're so pretty, makes me wanna cry
You're so shitty, makes me wanna die
Oh, I know these feelings come and go
Just like the tide, I'm feeling low and high
Oh, I know these feelings ebb and flow
Just like the tide, I'm feeling low and high
(Why are we here?) Look me in the eye
(Why are we here?) What are we tryna hide?
(Why are we here?) Look me in the eye
(Why are we here?)
You're so pretty, makes me wanna cry
You're so shitty, makes me wanna die
Oh, I know these feelings come and go
Just like the tide, I'm feeling low and high
(Why are we here?) Look me in the eye
(Why are we here?) What are we tryna hide?
(Why are we here?) Look me in the eye
(Why are we here?)
Oh, I know I'm not whole
I don't know self-control
Oh, I know I'd give my soul
(Why are we here?) Look me in the eye
(Why are we here?) What are we tryna hide?
(Why are we here?) Look me in the eye
(Why are we here?)
