  • (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
    Late night, thinkin' of shit, um
    (Tell me why) yeah
    Tell me why, tell me why
    It's so hard to say goodbye
    Tell me why, tell me why
    (No, no, no, no) yeah
    Oh shit, let's go (yeah, yeah)

    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye
    And when I get inside of my mind, I lose my time
    Thinkin' 'bout the times we had, thinkin' 'bout the time we spent
    Tell me why you left when you told me this was forever and
    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye, yeah

    Lost too many people to this shit, can't even speak upon this shit
    I seen shit, I'm way too damn young, it shouldn't need to be like this
    I swear that I'm way too damn numb to even think about this shit
    But when it's late and I lay awake, I get to tweakin' in this bitch
    Overthinkin', overdrinkin' Hennessy up in this bitch
    And I'ma face another 'Wood 'til I can't think up in this bitch
    'Cause if I keep thinkin' 'bout our memories
    Then it's gon' be in memory of me

    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye
    And when I get inside of my mind I lose my time
    Thinkin' 'bout the times we had, thinkin' 'bout the time we spent
    Tell me why you left when you told me this was forever and
    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye, yeah

    I can't count all the tears I cried, so many sleepless nights
    Watched all of my idols die, right in front of my eyes
    She asked why my heart so cold, and I just can't even lie
    I think that I'm better off without you with me tonight
    Better off alone, 'cause I won't take it well if
    You come in my life just to go like the rest did
    Why the fuck does God keep testin' me?
    Put my heart to bed, let it rest in pieces

    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye
    And when I get inside of my mind I lose my time
    Thinkin' 'bout the times we had, thinkin' 'bout the time we spent
    Tell me why you left when you told me this was forever and
    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye, yeah

    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye, yeah
    And when I get inside of my mind I lose my time
    Thinkin' 'bout the times we had, thinkin' 'bout the time we spent
    Tell me why you left when you told me this was forever and
    Tell me why, tell me why it's so hard to say goodbye, yeah Writer/s: Charlton Howard, Danny Snodgrass, Henry Nichols, Maxwell Nichols, Rio Leyva, Tanner Katich
