Why?
Dayo Bello Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1:
Everyday I'm dealing with the scars
Even when I leave my room I'm bleeding out
I'm in need of peace but it's far
Feels like this could be my last chance

I need me a spare tire
For when you break my heart
But you've been here through the fire

Chorus:
Why do you love me babe?
Why do you care?
Why do you love me baby?
Oohh

Why do you love me, why?
When I don't even love myself
Why do you still care baby?
Oohh

Verse 2:
Close the door and tell me something good
Cos when I open fire I feel misunderstood
Kiss me stay the night so I know it's real
There's more that meets the eye
There's more to how I feel

Slow dancing in the dark with you dear
It's the colour of my heart, but you see clear
Together we move past our fears
Girl I just need you near

Chorus:
Why do you love me babe?
Why do you care?
Why do you love me baby?
Oohh

Why do you love me, why?
When I don't even love myself
Why do you still care baby?
Oohh

Outro:
Tryna find my start
While I'm tryna find my heart
Why am I so lost?
Oh I have no trust

Tryna find my start
While I'm tryna find my heart




Why am I so lost?
Oh I have no trust

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dayo Bello's song "Why?" revolves around the theme of self-doubt and the feeling of not being enough. In the first verse, the singer talks about dealing with scars and bleeding out, symbolizing the emotional pain that he faces every day. He longs for peace but feels like it's out of reach. The singer also hints at a past experience where he was hurt by someone he loved and is now in need of a spare tire, depicting his fear of being vulnerable again but also acknowledging that the person he is singing to has been there through the fire, indicating a solid and supportive relationship.


In the second verse, the singer begs for the person he loves to stay and tell him something good. He feels misunderstood and wants to be seen beyond his surface-level emotions. He wants to know that their affection is real and strong, that there is more to how he feels than what meets the eye. The slow dancing in the dark symbolizes vulnerability and trust. The singer is grateful for the girl, and he affirms his need for her to be close to him.


The chorus repeats the question, "Why do you love me, why?", showing that he is insecure about the love and care he receives. He wonders why someone could love him when he does not even love himself. The outro repeats the lines from the first verse, emphasizing his struggle with trust and self-doubt. The lyrics symbolize the internal conflict that many people face with accepting love and support even when they don't feel deserving of it.
