about

“Most of us, I think, battle internally with the forces of good and evil, our inner voices. It’s what makes us human, our ability to reason and try to do the right thing, but also accept ourselves for who we are. That is what Tell Me Why is about, I think… “

​The song was written in the early days of the Covid pandemic and originally appeared as the 4th track on the 2021 album ‘Wisdom of Crowds’. This remixed and remastered version will be available on all digital platforms on Friday, February 17.

lyrics

TELL ME WHY, TELL ME WHY, I CAN’T FEEL LIKE YOU DO
MAYBE I, MAYBE I, I CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU

I CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU

TELLING LIES, SPREADING LIES,
THEY WORM RIGHT THROUGH YOU
MINIMIZE, JUSTIFY, TO MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD
MAYBE I, IF I TRY, I’LL SEE GOOD IN YOU
BUT I LIE, YOU KNOW I LIE, I WON’T FIND IT IN YOU

I WON’T FIND IT IN YOU
TELL ME WHY, TELL ME WHY, I CAN’T FEEL LIKE YOU DO
MAYBE I, MAYBE I, I CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU BUT I TRY, YES I TRY, I NEED TO BELIEVE YOU
‘CUZ IF I, LET IT DIE, MY SOUL WON’T FORGIVE YOU
MINIMIZE, JUSTIFY, TO MAKE ME FEEL GOOD
TELL ME WHY, TELL ME WHY, I NEED TO FEEL GOOD

I NEED TO FEEL GOOD

WHY DO I, EVEN TRY, I GUESS I NEED YOU
MINIMIZE, JUSTIFY, I WANT TO FEEL GOOD
TELL ME WHY, TELL ME WHY, I CAN’T CONFRONT YOU
MAYBE I, MAYBE I, I FEEL LIKE YOU DO
TELL ME WHY, TELL ME WHY, I FEEL LIKE YOU DO
TELL ME WHY, TELL ME WHY,

I GUESS I NEED YOU
