Lyrics

Mama said, "Walk it straight,"
Daddy said, "Don't tempt fate."
Prayed at night, worked all day
Taught me how to live that way
But I heard trouble call my name
Felt that fire, felt that flame
Knew the truth, still walked by
Left myself askin' why
Why'd I run? Why'd I fall
Why'd I climb that broken wall
Why'd I trade my honest life
For loaded guns and restless nights
I knew better, I won't lie
Still I chose the darker side
Now I'm standin' here alone
Askin' why, why
Open doors, second chances
Sunday suits and slow dances
Peace was close, hope was near
But I chased another fear
Fast talk, fast wheels
False gold, fake deals
Every win had a price
Every sin rolled the dice
Why'd I run? Why'd I fall
Why'd I climb that broken wall
Why'd I trade my honest life
For loaded guns and restless nights
I knew better, I won't lie
Still I chose the darker side
Now I'm standin' here alone
Askin' why, why
Ain't no devil to blame
Ain't no God I can shame
Every scar, every lie
Every tear, they're mine
Now the road knows my face
Every mile knows my mistakes
Posters up, doors locked tight
Sleep with ghosts every night
If I fall before dawn
If tomorrow's gone
Let 'em say I tried
To answer why
Why'd I run? Why'd I fall
Why'd I climb that broken wall
Why'd I trade my honest life
For loaded guns and restless nights
I knew better, I won't lie
Still I chose the darker side
Now I'm standin' here alone
Askin' why, why
Some men run
Some men cry
Some men live
Askin' why, why
