🎼 Why Me?

It’s not a love song. Not really. It’s about that kind of impact that feels more like collision than connection. When someone comes in loud, intense, impossible to ignore, and you realise a second too late that you’re not in control of it anymore.

Why Me?

Verse 1
I always thought I was lucky in love
Had a few brushes, nothing of much
Everyone before you seemed kinda tame
Guess I had just never played your game
Started off slow like you were gentle
Then came the warfare, totally mental
It’s like you were aiming for bonus points
Leveling up with direct heart shots

Bridge
You came at me like a bullet train
Why me?
Knocked me off track in the pouring rain
Why me?
Should’ve moved like my life was in danger
Why me?
Yeah, guess what? I should’ve known better

Chorus
You should’ve come with a hazard warning
Like bio-chemical warfare forming
Why did it have to be me?
You spit words like rapid gunfire
Every move like your heart’s on fire
Why did it have to be me?
You’re my mental health vaporiser
No remorse , you’re a fucking liar

Verse 2
Tried to play it cool, keep my distance
You pulled me back with damn persistence
Every red flag that I brushed aside
Like I was daring you to cross that line
You read me through like a detailed manual
Every weak spot, precise and mechanical
Now I see you, the way you exploit
Every fracture aimed just to destroy

Bridge
You came at me like a bullet train
Why me?
Knocked me off track in the pouring rain
Why me?
Should’ve moved like my life was in danger
Why me?
Yeah, guess what? I should’ve known better

Chorus
You should’ve come with a hazard warning
Like bio-chemical warfare forming
Why did it have to be me?
You spit words like rapid gunfire
Every move like your heart’s on fire
Why did it have to be me?
You’re my mental health vaporiser
No remorse, you’re a fucking liar

Fade out verse 3
I saw it coming, just too late
Played along, sealed my fate
Knew the rules but stayed in place
Still let you take the final play
No more questions, no more “why”
Just the echo when it dies
You don’t break, you just destroy
And I was never your choice

Chrous
You should’ve come with a hazard warning
Like bio-chemical warfare forming
Why did it have to be me?
You spit words like rapid gunfire
Every move like your heart’s on fire
Why did it have to be me?
You’re my mental health vaporiser
No remorse, you’re a fucking liar

(soft, repeated, almost echoing)
Why did it have to be me…
Why did it have to be me…

You should’ve come with a hazard warning…
Hazard warning…
Warning…

(quiet, final line)

You’re my mental health vaporiser…
