Justify Songtext
von Scott Stapp

I met a man in New Orleans
Wore a half-suit with dark blue jeans
Kicked his heels together
Winked at me real nice

I saw him from a mile away
But in my state of mind
I let him make his play
"Hey boy, have you seen the other side?"

Yeah, in this man I saw the Devil′s hand
So I looked at him man to man
Said, "This time it's gonna be a fight"

I do not have to justify
The way I live my life

I do not have to justify
The reason I′m alive
No more

No more (no more)


I saw her from across the room
With diamond eyes, she's Heaven's jewel
Dropped two aces, smiled and threw my cards back

Yeah, I′ve been that man who lives deceit
Surrounds himself with worldly things
So let me tell you a story
Let me feed it to you

We fly around like we were Superman
Living another trance
A different way to dance
With dark romance
You get another chance
To do the dirty dance without consequence

I do not have to justify
The way I live my life

I do not have to justify
The reason I′m alive

I do not have to justify
The way I live my life


So let me change the timber of this section
Add a little booze to ice
I guess you probably noticed
I've been living a double life

So fly around like you were Superman
Given another chance
A different way to dance
With true romance
You get another chance
To tell your dirty darkest secrets

We fly around like we were Superman
Living another trance
A different way to dance
With dark romance
You get another chance
To do the dirty dance without consequence

I do not have to justify
The way I live my life

I do not have to justify
The reason I′m alive

No more (we fly around like we were Superman)
No more (living another trance)
(A different way to dance)
No more (with dark romance)
(You get another chance)
No more (to do the dirty dance)

It's just not me (without consequence)
Not me
Not me
I′m just-
I'm just like you
