Why Me
Datuk Sharifah Aini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was drowned in your light
With the world so in tune
Till you made me out for a fool
Left with nothing to do
Can′t forget about you
With my heart in my hands
You gave me nothing but misery
I found so much more
You used me oh so helplessly
Don't want your sympathy
Why me?
Why me?
Why me? When I was the one who could set your heart free
Why me?
Why me?
Why me? You took all the love I gave up selfishly
Why me?
Trapped in your space
Never thought I could face
Going one step beyond
When I knew deep inside I was strong
Now I know what it takes
Can′t repeat the mistakes
When new love come along
It'll give me what I'll call my own
Oh-oh, you gave me nothing but misery
I found so much love
You used me oh so helplessly
Don′t want your sympathy
Why me? (I try to set you free)
Why me? (I love you endlessly)
Why me? When I was the one who could set your heart free
Oh-oh, why me? (Just gone a part of me)
Why me? (To love your symphony)
Why me? You took all the love I gave up selfishly
Why me? (I try to set you free)
Why me? (I love you endlessly)
Why me? When I was the one who could set you heart free
Oh-oh, why me? (I love you totally)
Why me? (Why me? Why me? Why me?)
Oh, why me? (I try to set you free)
Why me? (I love you endlessly)
Why me? (Just gone a part of me)
Why me? Oh-oh-oh, keep your sympathy
Why me? (I love you totally why me? Why me? Why me?)
I love you totally
I love you totally
Why me? (I love you totally) why me? (Why me? Why me? Why me?)

The lyrics describe how the singer gave everything she had to the relationship and received nothing but misery and pain in return. She is left wondering why she was the one who gave so much love and effort but ended up being taken for granted.

The song's chorus repeats the phrase "Why me?" which represents the singer's confusion and frustration as to why she was treated poorly despite giving her all.

Life felt so right
Initially everything felt good and perfect
I was drowned in your light
I felt mesmerized and overwhelmed by your love
With the world so in tune
Everything felt harmonious
Till you made me out for a fool
Until you showed me that you were just using me
Left with nothing to do
I had nothing else to offer
Can't forget about you
I still can't stop thinking about you
With my heart in my hands
I feel vulnerable and exposed
Pack my bags leave the memories with you
I'm leaving and taking back the memories we shared together
You gave me nothing but misery
You only caused me pain and sadness
I found so much more
I discovered my own worth and independence
You used me oh so helplessly
You took advantage of my love for you
Don't want your sympathy
I don't want your pity
Why me?
Why did you have to choose me?
When I was the one who could set your heart free
I was the one who could have given you everything and set you free
You took all the love I gave up selfishly

Trapped in your space
I felt confined and trapped with you
Never thought I could face
I never thought I could stand up to you
Going one step beyond
I am pushing beyond my limits now
When I knew deep inside I was strong
I realized that I was stronger than I thought
Now I know what it takes
I've learned what it takes to move on
Can't repeat the mistakes
I won't make the same mistakes again
When new love comes along
When I find new love

Just gone a part of me
A part of me is now missing
To love your symphony
To love your melody

I don't want your pity or condolences
I love you totally
I loved you completely
Why me?
Why did you have to choose me?
