[Verse 1]
I hear the neighbours, voices through the wall
Shadows at sunset, drifting down the hall
I keep my secrets folded deep inside
Learning to quiet the ache I hide

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes the silence is easy to choose
Sometimes it cuts like yesterday's news

[Chorus]
Maybe you’ve seen me standing outside
Maybe you glance and then pass me by
Stories are hidden behind my quiet eyes
Maybe you wonder but never ask why

[Post-Chorus]
Oh oh oh, you never ask why
Oh oh oh, you never ask why

[Verse 2]
The hallway echoes what I don’t say
Steps in the morning, then I fade away
You think you know but you only see
The part of me that I let you see

[Pre-Chorus]
Windows are shut, but the world still moves
Hiding my truth, got nothing to prove

[Chorus]
Maybe you’ve seen me standing outside
Maybe you glance and then pass me by
Stories are hidden behind my quiet eyes
Maybe you wonder but never ask why

[Post-Chorus]
Oh oh oh, you never ask why
Oh oh oh, you never ask why

[Post-Chorus]
Oh oh oh, you never ask why
Oh oh oh, you never ask why
