| [01:23.027] |
There ain't no reason things |
| [01:25.589] |
Are this way |
| [01:26.789] |
It's how they always been and |
| [01:28.278] |
They intend to stay |
| [01:30.645] |
I can't explain why we live this way |
| [01:34.414] |
We do it every day |
| [01:38.405] |
Preachers on the podium |
| [01:40.364] |
Speaking of saints |
| [01:42.104] |
Prophets on the sidewalk |
| [01:44.244] |
Begging for change |
| [01:46.004] |
Old ladies laughing |
| [01:47.845] |
From the fire escape |
| [01:49.904] |
Cursing my name |
| [01:53.207] |
I gotta a basket full of lemons |
| [01:55.300] |
And they all taste the same |
| [01:57.450] |
A window and a pigeon |
| [01:59.297] |
With a broken wing |
| [02:01.200] |
You can spend your whole life |
| [02:03.245] |
Working for something |
| [02:05.344] |
Just to have it taken away |
| [02:09.214] |
People walk around pushing |
| [02:11.176] |
Back their debts |
| [02:13.000] |
Wearing paychecks like |
| [02:15.003] |
Necklaces and bracelets |
| [02:16.600] |
Talking about nothing |
| [02:18.109] |
Not thinking about death |
| [02:20.432] |
Every little heartbeat |
| [02:22.273] |
Every little breath |
| [02:24.112] |
People walk a tightrope |
| [02:26.100] |
On a razors edge |
| [02:28.140] |
Carrying their hurt |
| [02:29.800] |
And hatred and weapons |
| [02:32.000] |
It could be a bomb |
| [02:33.630] |
Or a bullet |
| [02:34.300] |
Or a pen |
| [02:35.550] |
Or a thought |
| [02:36.600] |
Or a word or a sentence |
| [02:39.300] |
There ain't no reason things |
| [02:42.000] |
Are this way |
| [02:43.400] |
How they've always been |
| [02:44.800] |
And they intend to stay |
| [02:47.200] |
I can't explain |
| [02:48.700] |
Why we live this way |
| [02:51.000] |
We do it every day |
| [03:10.200] |
There ain't no reason things |
| [03:12.590] |
Are this way |
| [03:14.100] |
How they've always been |
| [03:15.500] |
And they intend to stay |
| [03:17.800] |
I can't explain |
| [03:19.300] |
Why we live this way |
| [03:21.800] |
We do it every day |
