Why? Lyrics by Pablo Brooks

Portrait

2020

[Verse 1:]
They’re all moving on
I'm getting sick of it
I'm still stuck on you
Summers changed us
The breeze is not the same
Oh, what can I do?

[Pre-Chorus:]
You’re the diamond in a stack of stone
You shine just like the first time
Oh, I cannot leave you now
What am I doing now?
Laughed till we broke our ribs
Cried to the same songs
Why can't I just you leave now?
Why am I still onto you?

[Chorus:]
Why can't I run?
Why can't I leave?
Why can't I stop?
No, I can't run
Can't face the truth
Not moving on
Still in front of you

[Verse 2:]
They’re with someone new
I’m getting tired of it
Nobody in my room
Winter made us
The breeze was still the same
Oh, what can I do

[Pre-Chorus:]
You’re the diamond in a stack of stone
You shine just like the first time
No, you never loved me though
Didn’t care to tell me so
Laughed till we broke our ribs
Internet and cigarettes
Nothing's as it used to be
Why am I still onto you?

[Chorus:]
Why can't I run?
Why can't I leave?
Why can't I stop?
No, I can't run
Can't face the truth
Not moving on
Still in front of you

[Bridge:]
Were we what I thought we were?
Or was it just imaginary?
Foolish childish imagery
A portrait of my loneliness

Were we what I thought we were?
Or was it just imaginary?
Foolish childish imagery
A portrait of my loneliness

[Chorus:]
Why can't I run?
Why can't I leave?
Why can't I stop?
No, I can't run
Can't face the truth
Not moving on
Still in front of you
