(Maybe that's why, maybe that's why)
(Maybe that's why, maybe that's why)

I've got a headache on half of my face
Can't catch my breath, got rats in my brain, no
How did I end up in my own way again?
I got a little too high in my brokedown car
No surprise, I'm scared to start, no
I know I'll end up in my own way again

Overheating with my engine
Will I ever learn my lesson?

Why would I wait to live my life?
Little too late when the timing's right
Guess I can't lose what I don't find
Maybe that's why, maybe that's why
I've been afraid of getting it right
But sitting here safe is a waste of time
Guess I can't lose if I don't try
Maybe that's why, maybe that's why

I wake up feeling sick, I know whose fault it is
Letting the dust settle, I thought I knew better
I swore I'd never slam the brakes again

Overheating with my engine
Will I ever learn my lesson?

Why would I wait to live my life?
Little too late when the timing's right
Guess I can't lose what I don't find
Maybe that's why, maybe that's why
I've been afraid of getting it right
But sitting here safe is a waste of time
Guess I can't know if I don't try
Maybe that's why, maybe that's why

(Maybe that's why, maybe that's why)
(Maybe that's why, maybe that's why)

I'm lying through my teeth, telling myself I've turned the page
I'm steady, staying stagnant, sitting still waiting for change
Retracing all my steps, I don't know where it went so wrong
And I still can't forgive myself for who I have become

All of the sudden, daylight is gentle
Peace in the process, love for the downpour
I think I know now, nothing is promised
But daylight is gentle, daylight is honest
Maybe that's why I'm seeing the nights through
'Cause I know I'll end up right where I'm meant to
(Maybe that's why, maybe that's why)
