Why?

Walking in circles
Bound by honor
Bound by silence
Walking in circles
Bound by hurt
Bound by loss
Walking in circles

My soul cries, "Why?"
(Why) Why, why, why...
My soul cries, "Why?"
(Why) Why, why, why...
My soul cries, "Why?"

It was just the other day
That I thought to have a say
But that was late yesterday
Now I live without you, today.
(Pause)
By giving bits of myself away
I tried to bring your gaze my way
But that was late yesterday
Now I live without you, today.
(Pause)
I gifted many things from my heart
Framed for an eternity within my art
But that was late yesterday
Now I still live without you, today.
(Pause)
What was my crime?
I worked for nothing, not a dime
But that was late yesterday
Now I frame myself within my art, today.
(Pause)
My soul cries, "Why?"
(Why) Why, why, why...
My soul cries, "Why?"
(Why) Why, why, why...
My soul cries, "Why?"

Walking in circles
Bound by honor
Bound by silence
Walking in circles
Bound by hurt
Bound by loss
Walking in circles

Videography:
Film at night. A torch is lit, the torch casting its light onto the face of a man (A King) in a mask briefly as he hoist the torch out in front of him casting his gaze to the ground, never looking up. Walking along a path within a forest with no destination in sight. Each pause the scene depicted repeats. At the conclusion of the video, at the crack of dawn, the cameras focus changes to a flock of vultures circling high above. The scene then switches to the view of the vultures as if your looking through a vultures eyes down onto the forest below. The path is an infinity symbol and the pauses are the repeating fork in the path.

Meaning: Although we have the light of knowledge, we tend repeat our past decisions which shows a lack of wisdom. The vultures represent the fate of humanity if we continue down this path of conduct.
