[Verse 1] I've been holdin' on you, babe On every word you said I've been countin' all the times You said you couldn't stay The only feelin' that I have Is feelin' down when you're around You just took away my crown To make me feel like I'm a clown But you're the clown
[Chorus] I just wanna know Why you're losing control When you drink alone (Oh please, just tell me why) I just need to know Why you're dead inside When all the lights go down
[Verse 2] All I see in me is what You're telling me to be All I see is crashing glass Bottle of empty beers I've been covering my ears I've been holdin' on for tears 'Cause all these years you didn't care Your only help was just to stare
[Chorus] I just wanna know Why you're losing control When you drink alone (Oh please, just tell me why) I just need to know Why you're dead inside When all the lights go down
[Post-Chorus] (Oh please, just tell me why) (Oh please, just tell me why) (Oh please, just tell me why) (Oh please, just tell me why)
[Bridge] You know that I still care Oh please, there's no compare Oh please, just tell me why Oh please, just tell me why
[Chorus] I just wanna know Why you're losing control When you drink alone (Oh please, just tell me why) I just need to know (Oh please, just tell me why) Why you're dead inside (Oh please, just tell me why) When all the lights go down (Oh please, just tell me why)
