Why You So Quiet Lyrics by Devon Braxton

Why You So Quiet

2019

[Intro]
Hey

[Verse 1]
I don't roll up at the party, say hello to everybody
I'm just coming for the liquor, where the drinks at
Lock myself inside my room and don't come out until it's noon
And then I'm going right back (mhmm)
Pace around so I can think, I tap my foot 'til it's in sync
With every thought that's in my head until I zone out
Looking up, my head in space with no expression on my face
And I'ma keep it like that (mhmm)

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't come to work to talk to you, no, I got bills to pay
Hiding from the hurt until I'm disconnected, far away
Keeping to myself, don't need to tell you when I'm acting fine
Everybody's always asking why, why you

[Chorus]
(Why you so quiet?)
Why you so serious? So unapproachable and mysterious?
(Why you so quiet?)
Why don't you talk back? Devon, don't you act rude
Don't you ever smile? Why you always got an attitude?
(Why you so quiet?)
Are you bored? Are you tired? Are you angry?
Do you go out? Are you shy? Do you hate me?
(Why you so quiet?)
I'm trying to help, I don't mean to offend
But you should probably open up, try to let people in
(Why you so quiet?)

[Verse 2]
I just wanna be alone, I just wanna be at home
Burned so many times I keep it ringing when I see the phone
Colder than a three-below, everything is need to know
Done asking for help from all these people, I don't need a bone
Never grew up with nobody that got me
Never fit in with the Clydes or the Bonnies
Only focused on the goals and the hobbies
Cause I know this life ain't meant for me (mhmm)

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't come to work to talk to you, no, I got bills to pay (no, I got bills to pay)
Hiding from the hurt until I'm disconnected, far away (disconnected, far away)
Keeping to myself, don't need to tell you when I'm acting fine (I'm fine)
Everybody's always asking why, why you (asking why, why you, yeah)

[Chorus]
(Why you so quiet?)
Why you so serious? So unapproachable and mysterious? (why you so serious? why you mysterious?)
(Why you so quiet?)
Why don't you talk back? Devon, don't you act rude (talk back, act rude)
Don't you ever smile? Why you always got an attitude? (why you always got an attitude?)
(Why you so quiet?)
Are you bored? Are you tired? Are you angry? (are you bored or tired and angry, lately hate me, save me, baby)
Do you go out? Are you shy? Do you hate me?
(Why you so quiet?)
I'm trying to help, I don't mean to offend
But you should probably open up, try to let people in (but you should probably open up, whoa)

(Why you so quiet?)
Why you so serious? So unapproachable and mysterious? (why so serious, serious, serious, serious, serious?)
(Why you so quiet?)
Why don't you talk back? Devon, don't you act rude (So mysterious, -sterious, -sterious, -sterious, -sterious)
Don't you ever smile? Why you always got an attitude?
(Why you so quiet?)
Are you bored? Are you tired? Are you angry? (I'm not bored, I'm not tired, I'm not angry)
Do you go out? Are you shy? Do you hate me?
(Why you so quiet?)
I'm trying to help, I don't mean to offend (why do you hate me?)
But you should probably open up, try to let people in
(Why you so quiet?)

[Outro]
Why you so quiet?
Mhmm
