'why' was created with simplicity and immediacy in mind. "why" is a question asked to the world ("why are things the way they are?") and also it's answer ("this is why..", "why: .."). the dualistic question and response is with a certain sorrow, but also grounded and accepting. the overly gentle mood represents natural balance, the unending pulse of time represented by the bass, with an eerie tone in the far background warning of the potential chaos that could break at any moment.
