Just Because I Can
If I came here to stay
With a seed to sow and lay
On the ground
Wait for sound
Hear the call and resound
I let it slip from my hand
Just because I can
Just because I can
Find a home, find a friend
Find a role you can pretend
Get the cash, make it match
From the outside to the in
I let it slip from my hand
Just because I can
Just because I can
And this may be the only way
I can save me
Get down on my knees and pray
I am maybe
If you know what is right
By the heart that beats inside
Calm it's pace and erase
Or decide to join the fight
Don't let it slip from your hand
Just because you can
Just because you can
And this may be the only way
I can save me
Get down on my knees and pray
I am maybe
Hold my tongue or tell the tale
Wise up lazy
Oh, my soul don't let me fail
Wise up maybe
Who wouldn't want to be restless for a while
I wanna try and stay in between the lines
Who couldn't see what is righteous
What is vile
One is grace and one's denial, oh, ah-ah-ah, oh
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La, la, la
And this may be the only way
I can save me
Get down on my knees and pray
I am maybe
Hold my tongue or tell the tale
Wise up maybe
Oh, my soul don't let me fail
Wise up lady
And pray, and pray
And I'll pray-ay-ay-ay
And I pray, and I pray
My innocence is going away
And I pray, and I'll change
I'm startled sick, I'm wide awake
And I'll pray, and I'll pray
And I'll pray, and I'll pray
And pray, and pray
And pray, and pray
What is right? What is right?
Ah-ah-ah
Why fight? Why fight?
Ah-ah-ah, hm-hmm
When I go outside, what is right?
Just because
Just because I can, I can
Just because I can
With a seed to sow and lay
On the ground
Wait for sound
Hear the call and resound
I let it slip from my hand
Just because I can
Just because I can
Find a home, find a friend
Find a role you can pretend
Get the cash, make it match
From the outside to the in
I let it slip from my hand
Just because I can
Just because I can
And this may be the only way
I can save me
Get down on my knees and pray
I am maybe
If you know what is right
By the heart that beats inside
Calm it's pace and erase
Or decide to join the fight
Don't let it slip from your hand
Just because you can
Just because you can
And this may be the only way
I can save me
Get down on my knees and pray
I am maybe
Hold my tongue or tell the tale
Wise up lazy
Oh, my soul don't let me fail
Wise up maybe
Who wouldn't want to be restless for a while
I wanna try and stay in between the lines
Who couldn't see what is righteous
What is vile
One is grace and one's denial, oh, ah-ah-ah, oh
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La-dee-da-dee-da-da
La, la, la
And this may be the only way
I can save me
Get down on my knees and pray
I am maybe
Hold my tongue or tell the tale
Wise up maybe
Oh, my soul don't let me fail
Wise up lady
And pray, and pray
And I'll pray-ay-ay-ay
And I pray, and I pray
My innocence is going away
And I pray, and I'll change
I'm startled sick, I'm wide awake
And I'll pray, and I'll pray
And I'll pray, and I'll pray
And pray, and pray
And pray, and pray
What is right? What is right?
Ah-ah-ah
Why fight? Why fight?
Ah-ah-ah, hm-hmm
When I go outside, what is right?
Just because
Just because I can, I can
Just because I can
