You said that I'm Yours, and that’s a guarantee
But I keep watching the door like You’re about to leave
I'm just caught off guard by the sincerity
So forgive me if I need some clarity
I'm just shocked You looked past all my grit and grime
I'm a little more downtown than I'm Anaheim
I'm more clown than pharaoh, more rat than sparrow
And I'm not so sure that that will change with time
Why?
Why do You love me?
When all I do is shift the blame
Why?
Why do You trust me?
When all I do is cause You pain
You said what’s the point of livin’ anxiously
This life ain’t sure, and neither are we
So I’ll do my best, and I’ll say my peace
Cause I’d rather look foolish than avoid belief
And I’ll hug my brothers, I’ll hold my bride
I’ll look for some solace in the hope inside
I’ll get it together, I’ll give it a try
But I’ll still be wondering why, why
Why?
Why do You love me?
When all I do is shift the blame
Why?
Why do You trust me?
When all I do is cause You pain
How don’t You notice all the things that I'm not?
Aren’t You ashamed of all the failures I’ve got?
It’s like You only see with rose-colored eyes
Why?
Why do You love me when I break Your heart?
Why do You trust me when I’ve missed the mark?
You’re just not focused on the things I despise
Why?
You said that I'm Yours, and that’s a guarantee
But I keep watching the door like You’re about to leave
I'm a little unsure of what You see in me
Maybe faith is to trust the things I don’t yet believe
