Lyrics for Why

The kid is good He's not like all the others He's misunderstood And so we're all his brothers Now he stands in the rain again The kid is fine But he's jealous of his own friends Divine, but he's got no money to spend But, he can take the pain I'm just a lonely kid Standing here on the porch I got nothing to lose I got nothing to search for I said why? Why? Why does it have to be like this I said why? Why? Why does it have to be this way? It's our ten year anniversary What happened to raw deal What happened to Jerry James And I know, didn't come back all this way to be myself After all, what are friends for I said why? Why? Why does it have to be like this I said why? Why? Why does it have to be this way? Make me suffer Make me pain You don't know what I would do to see you once again Build my life Wreck it in Pull it by the rim real hard And toss it all around I said why? Why? Why does it have to be like this I said why? Why? Why does it have to be this way?
