Anthem Of Why Lyrics

Artist: Guy Sebastian
Album: A Beautiful Life

Joe, lives with his folks at home
Smokes little plants he grows
Cool for a kid
But today is the big 3-0
It seems
All of his hopes and dreams
Got lost in habitual fiends
Now he is crying
Tears of what could have been

He is saying "Why oh why
Did my life pass by?"
Could it be that all this time saying, "Why?"
You shoulda said, "How?"

Thirty candles you are blowing
None of which deserves a light
The only music you've been playin'
Is the Anthem of Why
Always dreaming, never doing
So they never did take flight
Still the music, that you're playin'
Is the Anthem of Why

Stacey, dreamt of becoming a pop queen
Suddenly when she turned fifthteen
Everything changed
She found out she had one on the way
And so she took all the posters of Britney
Mariah, Beyonce and Whitney
And with her dreams
She threw them all away

She was saying "Why oh why
If not for that night
Could it be that all this time saying, "Why?"
You shoulda said, "How?"

All the hopin', all the wishin'
Girl, you traded for a night
And the music that you're playin'
Is the Anthem of Why
Now you're feelin', all your dreamin'
Was just a waste of time
So the song that you are singing
Is the Anthem of Why

Always saying "Why oh why
Did my life pass by?"
Could it be that all this time saying, "Why?"
You shoulda said, "How?"

All the hopin', all the prayin'
No, they never should have died
But they faded, when you traded how
For the Anthem of Why
Gotta dream it, gotta feel it
If you ever wanna fly
Never sing it, never play it
It's the Anthem of Why
