Why Am I
De Heideroosjes · Other Songs - De Heideroosjes
Intense aggressions, I'm burning insideWant to speak
out my emotions, end up my fightI know I can't put them away any longer
My sense says no but my emotions are stronger
(CHORUS)
Why am I? Who am I? I will try, what I try
You will die, just as I
Why am I?
An explosion of my pent up rage
Have to release it, I need disengage
My days are black, cold and all the same
Everything is wrong but who is to blame?
Hate, pain, destruction is all I see
Too many things with which I don't agree
I could turn my head off and look the other way
I wish I could but that's not the real me
