I won't tell the truth just to keep from tellin' lies |
|
I'm not gonna live just 'cause I'm afraid to die |
|
I don't want to pray just so I won't go to Hell |
|
Not gonna take 'cause I can't help myself |
|
I don't wanna push just to keep from bein' shoved |
|
Oh no, oh no |
|
That ain't reason, that ain't reason |
|
That ain't reason enough |
|
I don't want to stay just cause I don't have to leave |
|
Don't to play it safe just so I won't ever bleed |
|
I ain't gonna walk just 'cause I don't like to crawl |
|
Ain't gonna talk 'cause I'm up against the wall |
|
I'm not gonna love just so I won't be alone |
|
Oh no, oh no |
|
That ain't reason, that ain't reason |
|
That ain't reason enough |
|
Bones up in the attic, secrets in my bed |
|
Voices in the static rattlin' in my head |
|
It's a party-line tonight, hear 'em talkin' trash |
|
See the beast of burden got a monkey on his back |
|
High beams in the rear-view, rain out on the street |
|
All these things I carry with me, miles to go before I sleep |
|
There's the devil that you don't know |
|
And the devil that you do |
|
The lesser of these evils - I don't wanna choose |
|
That ain't reason, that ain't reason |
|
That ain't reason enough |
