Reasons for Living
Everyone's looking
Everyone hides
Everyone's telling... everyone lies
They're changing the subject
They're turning away
Away from the heart of it all
You say you are happy,
That you think this is fun
But it's only a firefly to the light of the sun
You say this is living
You feel so alive,
Well, you know, everything dies
(chorus)
Even my wonder
Even my fear
Only amount to a couple of tears
There is a rhythm
It's near and it's far
It flows through the heart of us
Welcome to another day
It don't seem that different 'cuz nothing has changed
Try to remember
Try to remember
When weren't just running in place
Reasons for living
Never come cheap
And even your best ones can put me to sleep
What I am saying,
Trying to say
Is that there must be a better way
(repeat chorus)
It's already in you
It's already there
You may disagree, but I don't really care
Did you ever find out,
You ever find out
What's at the heart of us?
Did you ever find out,
You ever find out
What's at the heart?
Tell me all your wildest dreams
I don't really care you don't know what they mean
Raiding the closets
The skeleton keys
You know, it's easier than you think
(repeat chorus)
Your reasons for living
Are all very fine
They're leaving me cold, though they're not really mine
Did you ever find out,
Did you ever find out
What's at the heart of us?
I don't know
I don't know, oh, oh
Everyone hides
Everyone's telling... everyone lies
They're changing the subject
They're turning away
Away from the heart of it all
You say you are happy,
That you think this is fun
But it's only a firefly to the light of the sun
You say this is living
You feel so alive,
Well, you know, everything dies
(chorus)
Even my wonder
Even my fear
Only amount to a couple of tears
There is a rhythm
It's near and it's far
It flows through the heart of us
Welcome to another day
It don't seem that different 'cuz nothing has changed
Try to remember
Try to remember
When weren't just running in place
Reasons for living
Never come cheap
And even your best ones can put me to sleep
What I am saying,
Trying to say
Is that there must be a better way
(repeat chorus)
It's already in you
It's already there
You may disagree, but I don't really care
Did you ever find out,
You ever find out
What's at the heart of us?
Did you ever find out,
You ever find out
What's at the heart?
Tell me all your wildest dreams
I don't really care you don't know what they mean
Raiding the closets
The skeleton keys
You know, it's easier than you think
(repeat chorus)
Your reasons for living
Are all very fine
They're leaving me cold, though they're not really mine
Did you ever find out,
Did you ever find out
What's at the heart of us?
I don't know
I don't know, oh, oh
