Why The Long Face? Lyrics

Why did you come here?

Because I tried to commit suicide

Yes, I knew that. Of course you did

And what I don't know is..

Why you tried to do this?

Could you tell us how you did it?

I took a.. A little blue pill

A hundred, didn't you?

A hundred, yes

And why did you want to commit suicide?

Because I didn't want to face anything

This wasn't the first time, was it?

No

So I thought the easy way out, to take pills, would be all over

But I didn't

Other people could see how hurt I was

And I didn't want anyone to see

To be able to tell that I was hurt

So I just..

Tried to be the opposite

Tried to..

I didn't care about anything

What about when you..

When you thought about..

Going to the basement and..

Doing something to get rid of yourself, what about that

What about when you..

When you thought about..

Going to the basement and..

Doing something to get rid of yourself, what about that

What about when you..

When you thought about..

I don't remember thinking about it

Do you remember telling me about that

No, I don't

I don't remember

What do you think when I..

Try to remind you of it now

No, I don't like..

I don't like to be reminded of it

You don't

No

I don't like that

I couldn't do nothing..

There was no one I could see..

Could I be glad to see..

There was nothing anybody could say..

That..

That would cheer you up, cheer me up..

I could still tell a joke..

Even then, even then I could tell a joke..

And make other people laugh, yes..

Because I think the reason for that is..

That I've always been known to be a joker and I enjoyed the fact that people enjoyed me..

I think that was the reason why..

I tried to muster up the strength to tell a story so somebody would notice me..

And you could do it, and I could do it..

There's not much to say, there's nothing wrong with you, what are you so glum about..

And I have to believe that..

I have to believe that she was right, that there was really nothing wrong with me..

All I had to do was be a man and snap out of it..

And that made you feel worse..

That made me feel worse.. Haha
