WHY I'M DEAD
(T. Mantelli 2010)

from above i see my body floating in the water
a long knife inside my flesh my bones inside my soul
you said i love you so many times
and then wathever happened??
you said i love you so many times
how this could ever happen??

i can't forgive you
i can't forget what you did
i can't forgive what you did last night
you did last night

is it cause i'm poor
is it cause i'm blue
is it cause i'm lovely
maybe it's why i'm dead
is it cause i'm free
is it cause i'm weak
is it cause i'm full of life
that's why i'm dead
maybe that's why i'm dead

i wonder if you will sleep tonight
tell me, did you sate your appetite?
but you 'll be walking through this world again
i wonder if you will sleep at night
but maybe that's why i'm dead

all my dreams are fading while i'm floating in the water
no more life inside my flesh my bones inside my soul
you said i love you so many times
and then wathever happened??
you said i love you so many times
how this could ever happen??

i can't forgive you
i can't forget what you did
i can't forgive what you did last night
you did last night

is it cause i'm poor
is it cause i'm blue
is it cause i'm brand new
maybe it's why i'm dead
is it cause i'm free
is it cause i'm me
which of these?
the reason why you killed me
maybe that's why i'm dead
