Reason Enough Songtext
von Mark Selby

I won′t tell the truth just to keep from telling 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
I′m not gonna take 'cause I can′t help myself
I don't want to push just to keep from being 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 want to play it safe just so I won't ever bleed
I ain′t gonna walk just 'cause I don′t like to crawl
I ain't gonna talk ′cause my back's 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, that ain't reason enough

Phones up in the attic, secrets in my bed
Voices in the static rattling in my head
Oh, it′s a party line tonight, hear them talking trash
See that beast of burden got a monkey on his back
High beams in the rearview, 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, the devil that you do
Oh, the lesser of these evils I don't want to choose


That ain't reason, that ain′t reason
That ain′t reason, that ain't reason enough
Oh, that ain′t reason, that ain't reason
That ain′t reason enough
