Only God Knows Why Lyrics

I′ve been sitting here, trying to find myself

I need to get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
I'm looking for the payback
I′m listening to the playback
They say that every man bleeds
Just like me

I feel like number one
Even when I'm last in line
I watch my youngest son
It helps to pass the time
I take too much ecstasy
Trying to ease the pain
I made a bunch of dollar bills
But I still act the same

And everybody knows my name
They yell it way out loud

People try to comfort me
But it's hard to hang out in a crowd
I guess that′s the price you pay
To be some big star like I am
Well, that′s just tens of one-night stands
But still I can't buy love

No, you can′t buy love
No, you can't buy love
And when it all comes tumbling down
I will still be hanging around

People don′t know about the things I say and do
They don't understand all the shit that I′ve been through
And it's been so long since I've been home
You know I haven′t been back to Florida for way, way too long
Maybe I forgot all the things I miss
But in my heart I know there′s got to be more to life than this

More to life than this
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And when it all comes tumbling down
I will always be around

I've said it so many times and I still stand firm
You get what you put in
Giving these people what they deserve
Giving them what they deserve
Still I ain′t seen lights for days and nights
My life is a stage full of flashing lights
People, they talk about me, but I don't cry
I just keep walking with my head held high
And I can′t lose it all
But only God knows

Only God knows why
Only God knows why
Why, why, why

I've been sitting here, trying to find myself
I need to get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
