Lyrics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u00a9 2024 Johannes Esselborn. All rights reserved. Used by permission of GEMA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way that I am, living gods plans<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But through it all feeling safe in his hands<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

These neon lights above my head, they moved so quickly; I\u2019ll never forget<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But now they make me feel alright, \u2018cause they are what guides me through this night<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way that I am, living gods plans<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But through it all feeling safe in his hands<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

How on earth did I come so far. I just wanted to play my guitar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But sometimes it\u2019s like I can\u2019t sing it out and sometimes my feelings are coming out loud<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way that I am, living gods plans<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But through it all feeling safe in his hands<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Looking at my hands, memories unfold. Traces of my life, stories untold<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every damn thing feels like it should. In the palm of his hands, my name understood<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way that I am, living gods plans<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But through it all feeling safe in his hands<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way that I am, living gods plans<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But through it all feeling safe in his hands<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why, why, why am I<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
