"I swear, I hear one more person lie/I'm going to tear down these walls, open your eyes/Reach into your heart and say, Why, why, why, why?"

"WHY", the single from Kate Schrock's new album, Invocation, gives a DNA window into the world of Schrock's music as a whole, which has received wide enthusiasm and respect from those who've heard this fine indie artist's well-produced, lyrically penetrating music... "a beauty of mind and art combined," as one reviewer has said. Hers is an anchored, visional voice, a haunting that resonates personally and universally. "WHY", pregnant with echoes of our times, sets its critical compass in a uniquely artful manner. Such is Schrock's probing talent and mature sense of grace.

Lyrics

sweet talkin' pretty boys rocking in the arms of vipers
they're carrying mercenaries into the path of snipers
they gave you the warning but another day is dawning
and you're still walking in your own shoes

I swear I hear one more person lie
I'm gonna tear down these walls
open your eyes
reach into your heart
and say why why why why
if I hear someone else lie

now there's sweet margaritas and they're flowing past your lips
she's all eyes and angels legs and fingertips
but you can't hear the wailing behind these paper walls
they're crying we'll never see justice until the big man falls

I swear I hear one more person cry
I'm gonna tear down these walls
open your eyes
reach into your heart
and say why why why why
if I hear someone else cry

the sunset in my hometown turns a darker shade of brown
and the crowd is stuck at the traffic light on the other side of town
and I'm trying to find love tell me where can my love be
but they're all walking zombies we're all walking zombies

I swear I see one person try
I'm gonna tear down these walls
open my arms wide
reach into your heart
and say why why why why
if I see somebody just tryin'

but the crowd's stuck at the traffic light
we're all stuck at the traffic light
