Why

In 'Why,' Cucsifae delves into the complexities of happiness and love, exploring the emotional turmoil that comes with longing and self-reflection. The song opens with a poignant question: 'What do we have to do to be truly happy?' This sets the stage for a deep introspection into the nature of happiness, suggesting that perhaps the simplest things in life bring the most joy. The lyrics then transition into a personal narrative, where the singer expresses a deep affection for their partner, highlighting qualities like being affectionate and non-jealous, which they believe should contribute to happiness.

However, the song takes a melancholic turn as the singer admits to feeling sad despite these positive traits. This shift reveals a deeper issue—perhaps the problem lies in the singer's own behavior or mindset. The plea, 'Please worry about me,' underscores a sense of vulnerability and a desperate need for emotional support. The singer's unhappiness is tied to their separation from their loved one, whom they describe as their 'sweet love' and 'everything I want.' This intense longing and the fear of unreciprocated feelings add layers of emotional complexity to the song.

The lyrics also touch on themes of self-doubt and regret. The singer acknowledges the possibility of having underestimated their partner and overestimated their own actions, leading to a strained relationship. The repeated pleas, 'Don't tell me you don't love me anymore,' and 'I can't imagine being with anyone but you,' emphasize the singer's deep emotional dependence on their partner. The song concludes with a heartfelt desire for reconciliation, encapsulating the universal human experience of yearning for love and happiness, and the fear of losing it.
