lyrics

Why oh Why can't I?
with a knot tightly tied round the light years of my distant sky,
Oh why, why can't I?
Why oh Why can't I?
with my eyes fixed on the inside so I can make a list of all the things I'm gonna someday try.
live for ever……………………………………...
It's been 9 years on the inside, all these hard times like dirt in my eyes,
so can I get some water for this thirst before I die.
Why oh why can't I?
with my voice low like a whisper, then I wish my for my lover,
I can't wait for the summer cause this body is always cold.
I'll send a letter…………………………………..
It's been 9 years on the inside, all these hard times like dirt in my eyes,
it's been 9 years on the inside.
It's been 9 years since my last crime, it's been 9 years since my last line,
it's been 9 years trying to find what's in my backyard,
trying' to hide what is mine but it gets too hard on the inside,
On the inside………………………………………..
OOH………………………………………………….
9 years on the inside, all these hard times like dirt in my eyes,
it's been 9 years on the inside, so can I get some water for this thirst before I die.
Die……………………………………………………
