This Is Why

(album: Suffer Tree - 1997)

And there's the police
So we'll all hurt me
See who's merciful [?]

Ugh!

Roll on over
Over and over
Roll on over
Since you could

And I've been counting
By these hands, yes
I've been counting
By these hands, yes

This is why, I'm about to
This is why, don't ask why
This is why, I'm about to
This is why, watch them fly

Black and white
With your hate
Black and white
With your pain

And I've been standing
Walked on
Reached on
I've been held down
Held down power

This is why, I'm about to
This is why, don't ask why
This is why, I'm about to
This is why, watch them fly
This is why, telling them nothing
This is why, telling them nothing
This is why, telling them nothing
This is why

Well I found it
Down inside
Watch it roll
Right through your side

Tell these people
That you believe them
Tell these people
Outside, let them

This is why, I'm about to
This is why, don't ask why
This is why, I'm about to
This is why, watch them fly
This is why, telling them nothing
This is why, telling them nothing
This is why, telling them nothing
This is why

This is why
This is why
This is why
