Jakalope – Tell Me Why lyrics

Tracin' the steps that I take
Feelin' mistakes that I fake
Makin' excuses like imaginary friends run away
To where I've already been
To where I already am

So tell me it'll work out so I'll be wrong again
I look inside
I'm surprised at what I see in my eyes

So tell me was I there when I was taught how to lie?
I thought I'd chase paradise but I'll just settle for life

So tell me did I die when I was taught how to lie?
Don't tell me what it'll be because it's all in degrees
And by degrees what I mean is you don't see what I see

So is this falling apart or are these pieces of me?
Is this a nightmare to be or am I building a dream?

When did this come to be?
When did things pick up speed?

Time gone by living in me
