Tell Me Why Lyrics


To those in power it's always the same
Made so resistant to reason
Why just deny all the voices for change
As we stumble and fall stripping the process awaySo who stands to gain from the righteous refrain
They say you get what you pay for
So we breach one more soul toss them out on the dole
Our shroud of indifference belies our benevolent tones[Chorus]
So tell me why
You fight for your life then you throw me away
Tell me why
You legislate opinion and say it's ok, it's never ok!So just what makes a life, what divides where we fall
And who decides which are chosen
But while we fight for the good like it's all understood
We lose what we love and morality's frozen away[Chorus]So what defines sacrament unholy vows
As you justify innocence somehow
How can I rationalize your morality
As you legislate your sad opinions on me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Good Riddance is a punk rock band hailing from Santa Cruz, California. They formed in 1986 and after over twenty years, eight albums, and countless tours, played their farewell show in 2007 but reunited in 2012. They played fast and explosive punk and hardcore music that was heavily influenced by the early American hardcore scene. The lyrical themes varied from political protests and analysis of the American society, to personal struggles and alienation. On occasion, the band had also been known to write slower, sometimes romantic songs.
