Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?

Everyone else saw it coming
everyone knew what was wrong
Why was I the last to know?
I always thought you were so strong...
Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?

I tried to get to know you
I tried to be your friend
And now that you've left
I wonder if I was the reason
that you brought your life to an end...
Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?

You didn't like
to talk on the phone
You'd rather have been
left alone...
Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?

You spent those nights sleeping
and I never even knew
While everyone else was partying
the whole night through...
Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?

I saw those marks on your wrists
and the blackness in your eyes
And you spent your life alone
and no one ever even asked why...
Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?

Your grave might call you
it's claim
But without you here
nothing's the same...
Oh, why didn't anyone tell me?
