Why Lyrics by Limp Bizkit

Greatest Hitz

2005

[Verse 1]
It might take too long to turn the lights back on
I guess I lay awake, I guess I'll lay here and pray
Could you pour me one more drink? A glass of gasoline
Help me burn my pain, light me up in the rain

[Pre-Chorus]
My so-called life is so good

[Chorus]
Why do we die?
Why do we die?
Slow down

[Verse 2]
You wonder how I've been, you ain't been checkin' in
Just hope my vital signs would send me home again
My baby's in the grass, Jesus on the dash
I drive myself insane just hopin' I could stay

[Pre-Chorus]
My so-called life is so good

[Chorus]
Why do we die?
Why do we die?
Slow down

[Bridge]
Slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
When deserts turn into floods
White orchids covered with mud
No magic carpet today, not today
Who takes the reigns when I'm gone?
Disintegrate from my throne
No magic carpet today, not today

[Outro]
Why do we die?
Why do we die?
Why do we die?
Why do we die?
