Why

(I asked you a question)

I feel a rise burnin' into the back of my head

If she could kill me with a look, I'd already be dead

Excited at the thought of possibly two in my bed

I said some shit that I instantly regretted, I said

I hid my deception with absolute discretion (I asked you a question)

Wanted to turn around and give up an accidental confession

I turned to look at her, and she's just standin' there

Facial expression says it all, war has been declared

She said, "Is there anything you wanna tell me?"

I'm standin' there with my head down, and I'm thinkin' "Oh, no

Here we go, what the hell was I thinkin'?

Man, I wish I was drinkin'

So I could blame it on the liquor, why did I paint the picture?

Why did I think it was something that she would even consider?"

Now I'm avoiding eye contact as if I owe her money

Tryna laugh it off, clearly she don't think it's funny

And then she stepped to me, comin' so steady

Looked at me like she knew already

I betrayed her trust, it weighs heavy

On my head and then she said

Why can't I feel love?

Oh, why can't I feel love?

Why am I not worthy of?

Oh, why can't I feel love?

(Oh) All she wanted was something real, something true

With tears in her eyes she says, "I believed in you"

I said, "Please don't leave, please don't go away"

She said, "You broke my heart, how could I stay?"

It'd be a year before I'd see integrity again

(Need any help?)

(Over there, they said he's over there)

(I see him, there he is)

(Ne-Yo, yo, is this dude, what are you doing?)

(Bruh, don't you know you got a show in)

(I'm in ten minutes from now, ten minutes from now?)

(Ay, what? What, you drinkin' before? What are you doin'?)

Relax, I'm not drunk

Guess who I ran into today
