Why? – Early Whitney Lyrics 17 years ago
Does anyone else think the "candles" (that will retire) might have lit that burning bush? Maybe a commentary on the belief in god. Disbelief will happen naturally, don't encourage it?

Why? – The Vowels, Pt. 2 Lyrics 17 years ago
It might help to also listen to "Light Leaves", off of Elephant Eyelash. The song can be read as about suicide and sex, however you like the two mixed but I feel there's some obvious suicide references (but this is WHY? we're talking about!)

The song ends with applause, after this song about suicide. Which has always struck me in a weird way, almost like they structured the ending to go along with what menoseloso said: "although sometimes i feel like applause is entirely innappropriate and the audience didn't 'get it'."

But again, if I really meant it, I'd embrace a dead pet, or enter into a bet....
