Jacob Whitesides - Why? Lyrics






Focus

You sit alone in a midnight haze
Can you hear my love?
A million voices rack your brain
Can you hear my love?
I wanna give you everything
Can you hear my love?
Signal's lost, we got cut off
Can you hear my love?

Focus on my voice
Gotta let me through
Gotta get to you
Turn down all the noise
Focus on me
I'll focus on you

Ooh ooh
Can you hear my love?
Ooh ooh
Can you hear my love?

You're in a war against yourself tonight
Can you hear my love?
Over the smoke and the battle cries
Can you hear my love?
I'm on your side and I will fight
Can you hear my love?
Transmission lost, yeah we got cut off
Can you hear my love?

Focus on my voice
Gotta let me through
Gotta get to you
Turn down all the noise
Focus on me
I'll focus on you

Ooh ooh
Can you hear my love?
Ooh ooh
Can you hear my love?
Through the static is it clear enough
I'll sing louder so you hear my love
Tunnel vision is it clear enough
I'll scream louder so you hear my love
Can you hear my love?

Focus on my voice
Gotta let me through
Gotta get to you
Turn down all the noise
Focus on me
I'll focus on you

Ooh ooh
Can you hear my love?
Ooh ooh
Can you hear my love?
Ooh ooh
Can you hear me babe?

Heartbeat

Never got one word in
Never got one night out
Don't know what she's got
Everybody wants her now
Just watching the clock wind down down down

Lemme get a second with your heartbeat
So I can finally find the rhythm I need
Tell me what you're thinking
Do you want me?
Lemme get a second with your heartbeat

Now that you finally see
The writing's on the wall
Honey he brought you down
But he's not your fault
Pull me closer, let me hear that sound right now

Lemme get a second with your heartbeat
So I can finally find the rhythm I need
Tell me what you're thinking
Do you want me?
Lemme get a second with your heartbeat

Beating's getting loud
Heart is slowing down
Time is running out
Time is running out

Beating's getting loud
Heart is slowing down
Time is running out
Time is running out

Beating's getting loud
Heart is slowing down
Time is running out
Time is running out

Lemme get a second with your heartbeat
So I can finally find the rhythm I need
Tell me what you're thinking
Do you want me?
Lemme get a second with your heartbeat

Lemme get a second with your heartbeat
So I can finally find the rhythm I need
Tell me what you're thinking
Do you want me?
Lemme get a second with your heartbeat

She Aint Got A Thing

She's got a thing for the catch and the chase
She won't fall in love
She likes to mess with fate
And she walked right up before she walked right out on me

Cards on the table
You get what you see
Then she walked right up before she walked right out on me

She's got a thing for turning on the nice guys
Come back to town just to prove she'll get you two times
She's got a thing and I'm warning you
She ain't got a thing for me
She ain't got a thing for you

She's 'bout that capture and the release
She's on the hunt for the very next me
Yeah she walked right up before she walked right out on me

Her smile is evil
Wrapped up in sin
She'll leave you praying that the night won't end
And she walked right up before she walked right out on me

She's got a thing for turning on the nice guys
Come back to town just to prove she'll get you two times
She's got a thing and I'm warning you
She ain't got a thing for me
She ain't got a thing for you

Get out while you got your cash
Get out while you got a chance
Get outta here while you still got a chance
Get the...

She's got a thing for turning on the nice guys
Come back to town just to prove she'll get you two times
She's got a thing and I'm warning you
She ain't got a thing for me
She ain't got a thing for you

Jaded Love

I'm gonna take a smoke break
From all of this heartache
Man there ain't no doubt
I'm sitting this one out
I'm gonna play this one safe
Repeat no mistakes
Man there ain't no doubt
I'm sitting this one out

Maybe I'll come around someday
Maybe good love will come my way
Right now all I got to say

Loneliness lights the heart up (la la la la)
I feel it deep inside (la la la la)
My friends say they all found love (la la la la)
Well I'm doing just fine (la la la la)

We've got jaded love (la la la la)
Me, myself, and I (la la la la)
We've got jaded love (la la la la)
Well I'm doing just fine (la la la la)

I ain't no prince charming
So you can save your wishing
Cuz I'm alone tonight
And I feel alright
So come on darling
I'm no strings attaching
And I'm alone tonight
And I feel alright

Maybe I'll come around someday
Maybe good love will come my way
Right now all I got to say

Loneliness lights the heart up (la la la la)
I feel it deep inside (la la la la)
My friends say they all found love (la la la la)
Well I'm doing just fine (la la la la)

We've got jaded love (la la la la)
Me, myself, and I (la la la la)
We've got jaded love (la la la la)
Well I'm doing just fine (la la la la)

Hands up
Forever alone and never been happier
Hands up
Forever alone and
Hands up
Forever alone and never been happier
Hands up
Forever alone and

Loneliness lights the heart up (Do you feel it babe?)
I feel it deep inside (Do you feel it?)
My friends say they all found love (But what did you really find?)
Well I'm doing just fine (yeah, I'm so fine)

We've got jaded love (la la la la)
Me, myself, and I (It's just me babe)
We've got jaded love (la la la la)
Well I'm doing just fine (I'm so fine)

Hands up

Levitate

He doesn't understand you and it's easy to see
He can't make you float, girl, he's not like me
Time and time again he's let you down
You should find some loving off the ground

Cuz if he's shady then you need to let him go
If he's lazy then he's not the one to hold

If you don't le-le-le-le-levitate
Then le-le-let me take his place
He ain't worth your time and space
If you don't le-le-le-le-levitate

You got something special but not with him
You need so much more, girl, than he can give
Time and time again he's let you down
But if you wanna fly I can show you how

Cuz if he's shady then you need to let him go
If he's lazy then he's not the one to hold

If you don't le-le-le-le-levitate
Then le-le-let me take his place
He ain't worth your time and space
If you don't le-le-le-le-levitate

If he doesn't make you high
Why do you waste your time?
I won't hold you down like gravity
We'll float right through the air just you and me
Just you and me

If you don't le-le-le-le-levitate
Then le-le-let me take his place
He ain't worth your time and space
If you don't le-le-le-le-levitate
Let me take his place
He ain't worth it baby
Levitate

Bury Our Love

I was old before I was young
I lost my trust before the morning sun
Then you came around
You taught me how
To bury our love at the bottom of the river

You caught me dead
Brought me to life
Dug me out of my grave
Kept our lust disguised
Bonnie and Clyde
More like Bonnie and tried
To bury our love at the bottom of the river

Cuz I beg for you, lie for you, and if it comes to it I'd die for you
Kill for you, steal for you, getaway car hold the wheel for you
Tonight it's time to bury our love at the bottom of the river

We're far from old
We're far from done
You got me high, you know that's why
Gonna bury our love at the bottom of the river

Cuz I beg for you, lie for you, and if it comes to it I'd die for you
Kill for you, steal for you, getaway car hold the wheel for you
Tonight it's time to bury our love at the bottom of the river

Lets runaway runaway runaway
And hideaway from everything
Lets runaway runaway runaway
And hide

Lets runaway runaway runaway
And hideaway from everything
Lets runaway runaway runaway
And hide

Cuz I beg for you, lie for you, and if it comes to it I'd die for you
Kill for you, steal for you, getaway car hold the wheel for you
Tonight it's time
Cuz I beg for you, lie for you, and if it comes to it I'd die for you
Kill for you, steal for you, getaway car hold the wheel for you
Tonight it's time to bury our love at the bottom of the river

Hold On Honey

I know I could be anyone but I don't know who I should be
I'm heading nowhere fast but God knows that I tried everything
It's been a long way down
Such a long way down

So hold on honey don't you let me go
I am barely hanging by the end of my rope
Hold on honey don't you let me fall
Pick me up, pick me up
I need a miracle

I wish I knew if it is what I've done or what's been done to me
Am I a victim or the author of my own misery
It was a long way down
Such a long way down

So hold on honey don't you let me go
I am barely hanging by the end of my rope
Hold on honey don't you let me fall
Pick me up, pick me up
I need a miracle

I need, I need, I need, I need a miracle

You are the only light I see
Breaking through a galaxy that's growing dim
You are the sound of melodies
You're the sweetest symphony of hope
That leads me home

So hold on honey don't you let me go
I am barely hanging by the end of my rope
Hold on honey don't you let me fall
Pick me up, pick me up
I need a miracle

Love Slow

Tell your mother that you're old enough
You have learned how to lie
When the truth ain't enough
But I can see right through you
Right through your bones
To your beating heart
Where your fears are home

If you wanna go, go fast
If you're gonna lie to me, just say that
If you wanna leave, then say so
But if you wanna love, love slow

Take the clocks off the walls
Turn em three hours back
'Cause if love is a race, I wanna come in last
You can run 'till the end of time
But that's romantic suicide
We're just two kids getting by
Are you gonna be by my side?

If you wanna go, go fast
If you're gonna lie to me, just say that
If you wanna leave, then say so
But if you wanna love, love slow
Love slow

Oh oh let's breathe a little
Oh oh be us in the middle
Oh oh I'm not leaving clues to a riddle
I just want you

If you wanna go, go fast
And if you're gonna lie to me, just say that
If you wanna leave, then say so
But if you wanna love, love slow

Why?

Invisible, you saw right through me
Like a wrecking ball, the impact threw me
I know where I went wrong thinking you need saving
I knew it all along, I'm the loose wheel shaking

Why we try
You got me wondering
Why we try
We can't keep changing
You got me wondering
Why we try

Invincible you shot right through me
Unsinkable but I'm drowning quickly
I know where I went wrong thinking you need saving
I knew it all along, now I'm overthinking

Why we try
You got me wondering
Why we try
We can't keep changing
You got me wondering
Why we try

Why?
You got me wondering
Why?
You got me wondering

Why we try
You got me wondering
Why we try
We can't keep changing
You got me wondering

You got me wondering

Lovesick

I said you ain't feel nothing like the wrath
Of the woman that you push too far
You can't run and you can't hide
She's gonna find just where you are
Said I wasn't trying to hurt nobody
I was just trying to have my fun
I went for the crown and then it all came down
Had true love, now I got none

Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
Oh yeah yeah yeah (Oh yeah yeah yeah)
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
Oh yeah yeah yeah (Oh yeah yeah yeah)

Because I'm lovesick
And there ain't no cure
'Cuz I keep on coming back for more
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
I'm lovesick
Guess I got the blues
Doctor, help, I don't know what to do
Oh no no no
(I had true love now I got none 'cuz I'm lovesick)

Ain't felt nothing so cold
As the shoulder of a woman that's mad
I grew up in the North Pole
And I never had it quite this bad
When you finally get her attention
You better hold onto your hat
'Cuz I never felt the temperature heat up
Quite like when she looked at me like that

Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
Oh yeah yeah yeah (Oh yeah yeah yeah)
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
Oh yeah yeah yeah (Oh yeah yeah yeah)

Because I'm lovesick
And there ain't no cure
'Cuz I keep on coming back for more
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
I'm lovesick
Guess I got the blues
Doctor, help, I don't know what to do
Oh no no no
(I had true love now I got none 'cuz I'm lovesick)

No, I never been a perfect angel
But I try to do the best I can
Sometimes I might just make mistakes
When I got a bottle in my hand
[When I'm hanging out with the wrong friends - *from official video]
So when she went through my phone in the morning
Judging by the text she read
She said, "Boy, by the time I'm done with you

Oh no no no
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
Oh yeah yeah yeah (Oh yeah yeah yeah)
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
Oh yeah yeah yeah (Oh yeah yeah yeah)

Because I'm lovesick
And there ain't no cure
'Cuz I keep on coming back for more
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
I'm lovesick
Guess I got the blues
Doctor, help, I don't know what to do
Oh no no no

Because I'm lovesick
And there ain't no cure
'Cuz I keep on coming back for more
Oh no no no (Oh no no no)
I'm lovesick
Guess I got the blues
Doctor, help, I don't know what to do
Oh no no no
(I had true love now I got none 'cuz I'm lovesick)

Black And Blue

I am drowning in an ocean of regrets
Reaching out for you I take deep breaths
Breathing gets harder and the pain much stronger
Underwater in the ocean of regret

Calling, calling, calling out for help
I got lost in the bitterness
Now I'm searching for myself
Calling, calling, reaching out for you
But all I see is black and blue
The regretful sea is black and blue
Black and blue

Everything is worse than I imagine
A paranoid delusional distraction
I can feel the waters, they're rising
What have I done?

Calling, calling, calling out for help
I got lost in the bitterness
Now I'm searching for myself
Calling, calling, reaching out for you
But all I see is black and blue
The regretful sea is black and blue
Black and blue

Regret is taking over
My thoughts becoming sober
My mind is boiling over at the thought of it
The weight is on my shoulders
The waves are getting closer
My hands are getting colder at the thought of it
Have you thought of it?

Yeah I'm calling, calling, calling out for help
I got lost in the bitterness
Now I'm searching for myself
Calling, calling, reaching out for you
But all I see is black and blue
The regretful sea is black and blue
Black and blue

You Told Me So

I did a lot of running this week
I made it to the top of my mountain peak
I thought about you on the way
How you called out a warning
Oh how you warned me

Now I'm scared and alone
But I'm aware that there's no place like home

I been running and running but I don't know where to go
I've been chasing, replacing but I am still alone
What a mess, there's nothing left
I lost my heart and soul
You told me so
I should have listened when you told me so

When I look back from the mountain top
I saw all the places I should have stopped
I wish I never left you there
When you called out a warning
Oh how you warned me

I been running and running but I don't know where to go
I've been chasing, replacing but I am still alone
What a mess, there's nothing left
I lost my heart and soul
You told me so
I should have listened

You saw through all the dances I did through all your chances
And when I took advantage I could have given up
You even loved a fool who made a mess of you
What have I become?

I been running and running but I don't know where to go
I've been chasing, replacing but I still feel alone

I been running and running but I don't know where to go
I've been chasing, replacing but I still feel alone
What a mess, there's nothing left
I lost my heart and soul
What a mess, there's nothing left
I lost my heart and soul
And you told me so oh
You told me so
And when I ask for you the answer is no.

Open Book

I, I know I come across like a mystery
But I, I wanna share with you every piece of me
There's so much conversation in the way we touch
Motivated by what we could become
The center of the sun

I'm an open book
You can learn
You can look
If you let me hold you
Girl you hold the key to unlock all of me
If you let me hold you
Is it yes?
Is it no?
Should I stay?
Should I go?
I'm an open book
You can learn
You can look
If you let me hold you

I, I got one foot in but there's one still out
'Till I, I know I'm something that you care about cuz
There's so much conversation in the way we touch
Motivated by what we could become
The center of the sun

I'm an open book
You can learn
You can look
If you let me hold you
Girl you hold the key to unlock all of me
If you let me hold you
Is it yes?
Is it no?
Should I stay?
Should I go?
I'm an open book
You can learn

If you let me hold you

These walls I built won't stand their ground
Ashes ashes they're falling down
Set it in stone you'll stick around
Ashes ashes fall down

I'm an open book
You can learn
You can look
If you let me hold you
Girl you hold the key to unlock all of me
If you let me hold you
Is it yes?

Should I stay?
Should I go?
