Testo Tell Me Why

If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?
If the only point of life is not to die
(Reports are now flooding in of)
Can you tell me why?
(The apparent death of popular musician and recording artist, Awsten Knight)
Can you tell me why? (Unconfirmed sources say)

Woke up in a conference room
Two guys in polyester suits
With clipboards saying ("We're here to do your earthly exit interview")
(Before we even get to that)
(The question that they always ask)
(Is "Can you tell me how I died?")
{And yes, we can, Mark, hit the lights}
(You're waiting at the DMV)
(Ticket number 103)
(You hate the lady next to you)
{She was coughing, breathing, next to you}
(You said "God, please kill me now")
(We decide to help you out) (Now you are here and here is now)
{Wait, why the fuck is he freaking out?}

If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?
If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?

My child, my child
I heard you had some questions
About policy and usage of divine intervention
I know that you're frustrated
My design is complicated
But I'm here to answer questions if you want

Okay!
I just need some answers
Like why do kids get cancer?
Why is murder even possible?
Why does heartbreak feel unstoppable?
What's the point of allergies?
Why did you even make disease?
Why's money not fulfilling?
Why do I?

If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?
If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?
Why I care, why I cry
Why I'm so terrified
Why the hell do I try? Where's the knight inside?
If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?

Okay, I hear you and I get it
But to understand the answers to these questions
There's something else you need to see
Step into this elevator, bye bye!
(Welcome to hell!)
(We're so glad you arrived!)
(Some folks that you know are already inside)
(There's nowhere to run, there's nowhere to hide)
(There's no escaping, I've already tried)
(Good luck!)
Going down

Welcome, Mr. Knight
It's a hot one, am I right?
(Ah, yeah I guess, I'm just confused)
(Like why am I here, what did I do?)
Hell of a question, Mr. Sneaking Out Of Heaven
Ooh, deadly sins, let's see
You collected all seven
And you think that you deserve the answer why
When this is how you lived your fucking life
You treated people like possessions
While withholding your affections
Thought fame would heal depression
But you hated your reflection

Honestly, you're just like a bitch sometimes
{Um, there's been a mistake}
Goddammit Janine, I really liked him

{I'm sent back to that conference room}
(Mark's like), {"We've got news for you}
{We got it wrong, you're going back!}
{You survived a heart attack"}
(Woke up to fluorescent lights)
(IV's keeping me alive)
(Doesn't change the way I felt)
(Saw it all, and I still can't tell)

If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?
If the only point of life is not to die
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why?
