Why?

it seems i'm living in a lost and far away place 
it feels alittle bit like sleep 
no fun, no motivation, a simple far away state 
when days are over they repeat 

i glance around / become aware that this is not my home 
i try to climb the barriers but i'm forced into a room 
a simple scream of frustration / i'm tied and left alone 
and i just want the fog to lift and to be back where i'm known 

[Chorus]
and i say why -- have i been put away 
and i say why -- i'm locked and put away 
and i say why -- can this be what i wanted 
and i say why -- i want to get away and i say why 

it seems we're broken pieces tossed into the waste bin 
we're all the shattered parts of dreams 
one step, a simple process to get you firm and in place 
when they take over is that peace? 

i glance out there, the population all safe and in their homes 
it just ain't fair the complications that strap me to my room 
i try to scream, the frustration it tears inside my bones 
can i resist the temptation, i feel i'm all alone 

[Chorus]

and i say why and i say why and i say why 
have i been put away 
and i say why and i say why and i say why 
i'm locked and put away 
and i say why and i say why and i say why 
can this be what i wanted 
and i say why and i say why and i say why 
i want to get away but i ask why.
