why?

Verse 1

Woke up empty for no reason

Same dull weight behind my ribs

I checked my phone for some reminder

A date I might have skipped

Pre-Chorus

Maybe it's the weather

Maybe it's my blood

Maybe I'm just wired this way

Maybe it's enough to wonder

Chorus

Why am I so sad (so so)

Nothing broke and nothing fell

Why am I so sad (so so)

Still I'm swimming in a well

Why am I so sad (so so)

So sad

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

(Why am I so sad)

Oh-oh oh-oh

Verse 2

I trace it back to being smaller

To a teacher and a friend

I ask my mother on the phone line

She says I've always been this way

Pre-Chorus

Maybe it's the season

Maybe it's the sun

Maybe I just need to sleep

Maybe it's enough to wonder

Chorus

Why am I so sad (so so)

Nothing broke and nothing fell

Why am I so sad (so so)

Still I'm swimming in a well

Why am I so sad (so so)

So sad

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

(Why am I so sad)

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bridge

Quietly

Quietly

I stop asking why

Quietly

Quietly

I just let it lie

Chorus

Why am I so sad (so so)

Nothing broke and nothing fell

Why am I so sad (so so)

Still I'm swimming in a well

Why am I so sad (so so)

So sad

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

(Why am I so sad)

Oh-oh oh-oh

Mm-hmm
