Waterparks: TELL ME WHY (WE MADE THIS VIDEO TO CONVINCE MARK HOPPUS TO FEATURE ON OUR SONG)

"TELL ME WHY" If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? I woke up in a conference room Two guys in polyester suits With clipboards say, “We’re here to do Your earthly exit interview! Before we even get to that The question that they always ask Is ‘Can you tell me how I died?’” “And yes, we can! Mark, hit the lights!” “You’re waiting at the DMV Ticket number 103 You hate the lady Next to you She was coughing, breathing Next to you “You said, ‘God please kill me now’ We decide to help you out, Now you are here and here is now,” “Wait—why the fuck is he freaking out?” If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? My child, my child I heard you had some questions ‘Bout policy and usage of Divine intervention I know that you’re frustrated My design is complicated But I’m here to answer questions if you want Okay! I just need some answers Like, why do kids get cancer? Why is murder even possible? Why’s heartbreak feel unstoppable? What’s the point of allergies? Why did you even make disease? Why is money not fulfilling? Why do— If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? Why I care Why I cry Why I’m so terrified Why the hell Do I try Like, can I get a sign? If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? Okay, I hear you and I get it But to understand the answers to these questions There’s something else you need to see. Step into this elevator Buh-bye— Welcome to hell We’re so glad you’ve arrived Some folks that you know are already inside! There’s nowhere to run There’s nowhere to hide There’s no escaping, I’ve already tried Good luck! GOING DOWN Welcome, Mr. Knight! It’s a hot one, am I right? Uhhh, yeah, I guess, I’m just confused, like Why am I here? What’d I do? Hell of a question, Mr. Sneaking Out Of Heaven Oooooo, deadly sins, let’s see, You collected all seven! And you think that you deserve an answer why When this is how you lived your fucking life: You treated people like possessions, While withholding your affections, Thought fame would heal depression, But you hated your reflection And you’re just like, a bitch sometimes—wait what Sir, it seems like there’s been a mistake God dammit, Janine, I really liked him I’m sent back to that conference room, Mark says, “We got news for you! We got it wrong, you’re going back You survived the heart attack!” Woke up to fluorescent lights, IV’s keeping me alive Doesn’t change the way I felt Saw it all and I still can’t tell If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why? If the only point of life is not to die Can you tell me why Can you tell me why?
