Reason is a term that refers to the capacity human beings have to make sense of things, to establish and verify facts, and to change or justify practices, institutions, and beliefs. It is closely associated with such characteristically human activities as philosophy, science, language, mathematics, and art, and is normally considered to be a definitive characteristic of human nature. The concept of reason is sometimes referred to as rationality and sometimes as discursive reason, in opposition to intuitive reason.
Reason or "reasoning" is associated with thinking, cognition, and intellect. Reason, like habit or intuition, is one of the ways by which thinking comes from one idea to a related idea. For example, it is the means by which rational beings understand themselves to think about cause and effect, truth and falsehood, and what is good or bad.
In contrast to reason as an abstract noun, a reason is a consideration which explains or justifies some event, phenomenon or behaviour. The ways in which human beings reason through argument are the subject of inquiries in the field of logic.

Neil deGrasse Tyson ( /ˈniːəl dəˈɡræs ˈtaɪsən/ born October 5, 1958) is an American astrophysicist and science communicator. He is currently the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space, and a research associate in the department of astrophysics at the American Museum of Natural History. Since 2006 he has hosted the educational science television show NOVA scienceNOW on PBS, and has been a frequent guest on The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Real Time with Bill Maher, and Jeopardy!. It was announced on August 5, 2011, that Tyson will be hosting a new sequel to Carl Sagan's Cosmos: A Personal Voyage television series.
Tyson was born as the second of three children in the borough of Manhattan in New York City, but was raised in the Bronx. His mother, Sunchita Feliciano Tyson, was a gerontologist and his father, Cyril deGrasse Tyson, was a sociologist, human resource commissioner for the New York City mayor, John Lindsay, and was the first Director of HARYOU. Tyson attended the Bronx High School of Science (1972–1976, astrophysics emphasis) where he was captain of the wrestling team and was editor-in-chief of the school's Physical Science Journal. Tyson had an abiding interest in astronomy from the age of eleven, following his visit to the Hayden Planetarium at age nine. Tyson recalls that "so strong was that imprint [of the night sky] that I'm certain that I had no choice in the matter, that in fact, the universe called me." He obsessively studied astronomy in his teens, and eventually even gained some fame in the astronomy community by giving lectures on the subject at the age of fifteen.

Plot
A man in a cell. A lost key and an answer chained to a chair. In this allegorical investigation of the human will, a lunatic ponders his unhappy past and demands an answer from his prisoner of forty years, Reason. Help is given, but denied. Truth is bound, but not forsaken. The dialogue between these two fated enemies crescendos to a climax that will both start and convict.
The only obstacles that prevent Wes from asking Sylvia out are the disagreeable emotions clashing in his brain.
Plot
A look inside the brain, where we see Emotion (a caveman) ruling the infant, with Reason in the driver's seat for adults most of the time. We're shown the consequences when emotion takes over, and then we see how Hitler has manipulated his populace so that Emotion has put Reason in a concentration camp. Finally, we're exhorted to keep emotion in check to help us win the war, by not paying attention to rumors and getting discouraged with minor setbacks (but still having emotional pride in our country).

And everybody will get to play
The hand they're given
And everybody will deserve
The space they live in
And everybody will get to feel
Some peace within
And everybody will get
Someone to talk with
Cause there must be a reason
Why you're keeping me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
And everybody will lead a life
They feel will matter
And everybody will know such a simple thing
Like laughter
Cause there must be a reason
Why you're keeping me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
After all the fear is gone
There's place where everybody goes
After all the feelings show
There's a secret everybody knows
After all the fear is gone
There's place where everybody goes
After all the feelings show
If I remember you will remenber me
as clear as I do,
even when years have gone away.
I know it's hard for me,
is it hard for you to keep me in your minds,
to miss me the way I miss you?
Now all of us were changed,
so many things to come,
some maybe good, some maybe bad,
still looking for a reason,
reason to change my points of view.
What they are? I've never been quite sure.
Why the people always pissed me off
trying to be just what they'll never be?
Walking all around, watching T.V.,
trying to give smoking up.
I know it's hard for them.
Fuck, it's hard for me
to keep myself away from it,
trying not to get involved too much.
I'm looking at your picture,
I keep it in my wallet,
I'm feeling like a child
still looking for a reason,
reason why should I do what I'm told,
reason why, reason why I am cold.
Why the people always put me down
and all I want to do is fly away
walking in the sun without a reason
to be sorry for the things I've done, the things I feel,
I hope you can forgive all I did without a reason.
I walk away, away I walk,
to somewhere where I won't be tired.
I run away to find something new.
I'll wash my faults into the sea
alone without a ceremony.
This didn't happen for a Reason
No matter what you say
If there was something here to believe in
Then maybe I would stay
But since there ain't, I think I'll keep moving
To anywhere but here
My eyes are open and they're bleeding
As far as I can feel (*2)
And don't say I never gave you nothing
After you hear this song
And don't tell me that you don't remember
The day it all went wrong
Just put the pieces all back together
And tell me what it's like
To let somebody do the breathing for you
And does it feel all right?
Yeah, and does it feel all right?
Be here my all, my reason
Carry me to the nest, where I can rest
And find the lost and erased
Belong with me, my warrior
Armour me inside your wings
Close within, embrace me to rest
For I know, your wings reach fields far from here
And you show your heart bleeds for me now and again
Be here my all, my reason
Carry me to the nest, where I can rest
And find the lost and erased
Take me to the place where I should be
Let me feel your heart beat inside of me
Help me understand the words that you speak
Then I know that I will find what I seek
Keep me in your wings and fly
Elevate me to new heights
I will be safe here inside your embrace
Hold me closer to this presence of grace
Make the winds move and the clouds disappear
Spread your wings and tell the stars to steer
Keep me in your wings and fly
For I know, your wings reach fields far from here
And you show your heart bleeds for me now and again
Belong with me, my warrior
Armour me inside your wings
Close within, embrace me to rest
Be here my all, my reason
Carry me to the nest, where I can rest
And find the lost and erased
What are you taken
Misleading again
And that face that you're making
You
Better clean it when you can can can
We're gonna suffer
Inquisition form the pharisees
I know you didn't mean to move by
And leave me to take the blame
Let them right
What was left of me
And the REASON I get this
The REASON I get this
Way
I don't know - I don't know
Come in relax and have a seat
You look sort of nervous and ashamed
I know you've never seen the fall guy
Take the dive and wear the scar
But trophy the pain
YOU BETTER BELIEVE I WATCHED YOU SUFFER
and the REASON I get this . . .
but is it worth the pain
I know
the reason I get this
the reason I get this
the reason I get this way everday
the reason I get this way
and the reason I get this way
I don€™t €.don€™t know
The reason I get this way
You've given me a reason to love one more time
Came into my life and made up my mind
You are to me what I want you to be
You've given me a chance to love tenderly
And deep in my heart I knew you were meant for me
Right from the start it was like destiny
You've given me a reason
A reason
You've given me a reason
A reason one more time
I can't explain the way you make me feel
You've given me a love that's oh so real
You came along and you gave me a song
Now we have a love that's oh so strong
You light up my life the things that you do for me
And I'll be with you throughout all eternity
You've given me a reason
A reason
You've given me a reason
Reason
Does it matter if these feelings are gone
Are we moving on
Or do words mean nothing anymore
All the honesty left behind
I can't trust you no more
I don't want to be second anymore
There's a comfort in finding love
Your soul feels at home
You'll never believe how close we've come
A world that whispers
No thorn in my side
I'll fly to the sun
That won't burn my eyes
Faith can move mountains
No force is implied
Silent stars passing
The answers to life
Hold onto the secrets of dreams and desires
The secret is so hard to find
The secret is found in her eyes
I guess my pride has got the best of me
The pain is still strong
Your story's complete, mines far from done
Take a bow, I'm no angels son
I have faith in me
We are like leaves, we change and fall
A world that whispers
No thorn in my side
I'll fly to the sun
That won't burn my eyes
Faith can move mountains
No force is implied
Silent stars passing
The answers to life
Hold onto the secrets of dreams and desires
The secret is so hard to find
The secret is found in her eyes
Hold onto the secrets of dreams and desires
The secret is so hard to find
The secret is found in her eyes
Hold onto the secrets of dreams and desires
The secret is so hard to find

chorus:

chorus:(x3)
Prove to me you're just like them so I know I'm right again
You've changed throughout the years, but yet I remained here
It's such a shame to see you go, it's for the best I know
Whoa, what's your problem?
Things can't get any worse (can't get any worse)
Nothing you can coerce
Nothing you can do
Now except your fate
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
And when you try to come back and say you're sorry again
We'll turn our backs and forget that you ever came
So here's our farewell the pressure is all off of us now
Whoa, what's your problem?
Things can't get any worse (can't get any worse)
Nothing you can coerce
Nothing you can do
Now except your fate
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
Everything is lost
Nothing means anything
Why go on in sorrow
Why live to fear tomorrow
"Luckily" my instinct of selfpreservation
Is stronger than my death wish
That is why my eyes are hard and
Bye, bye -
It's the same old wind again that calls me
- bye, bye -
on an ordinary day.
Bye, bye -
have you ever felt this lack of freedom
- bye, bye -
have you ever felt this way.
Leave it, don't leave it - I have to leave,
I can't go on pretending.
Nothing is real, don't you feel
that every road is ending.
Don't ask why i have to leave you,
don't you try, there have to be two.
We will never find a reason,
we will never find a way,
we will always run on empty,
we will always run away.
We will never find the answer
as long as we don't understand,
we can't walk this way together,
we cannot take each others hand.
I've said it all - holy eyes -
no more sweet surrender.
Forget it all - no more lies,
soon we will remember that
everything we tried to change
stayed always and always and always
the same.
We will never find a reason,
we will never find a way,
we will always run on empty,
we will always run away.
We will never find the answer
as long as we don't understand,
we can't walk this way together,
we cannot take each others hand.
We will never find a reason,
we will never find a way,
we will always run on empty,
we cannot walk each other way.
We will never find the answer
as long as we don't understand
we can't walk this way together,
we cannot take each others hand.
There's a light inside the hollow,
there's a light behind the wall,
but we've got different lights to follow,
we have to fall, so let us fall.
I was afraid - I couldn't hear you,
I was ashamed but now I know
that we got different roads to follow,
that we got different ways to go.
We will never find a reason.
wWe will never find a reason.
We will never find a reason,
we will never find a way,
we will always run on empty,
we will always run away.
There's a light inside the hollow,
there's a light behind the wall,
but we've got different lights to follow,
Oh I get the feeling
When I see you coming
The feelin' comes
It's plain to see
I get the feeling
When I see you running
You saw the feeling coming over me
Oh what you do, what you do to me
Oh it ain't enough
Satisfied
I am never satisfied
Satisfied
Can't get enough good lovin'
Lord knows I try
I say now
In the morning when I'm feeling funky
Got your heartbeat next to mine
You nave ring has grown a tad bit crusty
But it's your soul I wanna shine, yea
Oh what you do, what you do for me
Oh it ain't enough
Satisfied
I am never satisfied
Satisfied
Can't get enough good lovin'
Lord know I try I said
Satisfied

I am never satisfied
Whoa, I am never satisfied
Whoa, I am never satisfied, whoa
I'm never satisfied
Whoa, no
True Love knows the way
across the sea of time.
Straight to the place we long to find.
It's true, Love contains
a promise and a lie.
It paints those pretty blue and sunny skies.
Good souls lost at sea
caught up in storms like these
would never leave the land behind.
Maybe that's the reason Love is blind.
True Love knows the song
the wind is yet to play
knows every word your heart would say.
Each breath rolls along
the trees begin to sway
the melody will carry us away.
So Love, dance me home
into that great unknown
to far to ever change my mind.
Maybe that's the reason Love is blind.
So Love, dance me home
into that great unknown
too far to ever change my mind
Maybe that's the reason Love is blind.
I think it's time to talk with you.
Think it's time to realize.
Where is the love?
Are we gonna stay together...
or is it time to say goodbye?
Where is the love?
Give me a reason...
to hold on to what we've got.
Must be a reason...
to hold on to what we've got.
Time has come to set things right.
Is it worth another fight?
Tell me the truth.
Is there something on your mind?
Tell me what you hide inside.
Tell me the truth.
Are there things that I should know?
Will you stay or will you go?
Where is the love?
Tell me. Is there hope in sight?
Gotta read between the lines.
[Chorus x2]
Experience destruction of self through greed
Still I resent every day that I breathe
True, it's on the negative that I feed
But that's how my dark soul chose to bleed
[Verse 1]
Explore philosophies based upon re-incarnated
Shaded ways of life display strive created
through the compliments belated,
Woke in the morning feeling hated by my loved ones
As I shove guns in my mouth in a dark alley in the inner city
Called the ghetto
Even dreams stated shitty
The acidity of my saliva enjoys my flesh
From the inside, the pain from moves from my gut to my chest
Here we rating like cancer breast from the stress level
On a quest to make money with sober fuck the devil
With this black magic forked-tongue that I amputate
With my mind, sometimes the rhymes the only way to ventilate
All the evil spirits from the inner-self
I concentrate, on flaws placed upon my inner-shelf
Observation, my, orbit, visionary
Pre-destination relief destroys what you carry, as choice
My voice reflects the dark times
The darkness, cleansed by kerosene
Now it's time for me to spark this flame
Spark this flame, spark this flame until ignition, refrain
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 2]
Captivating my movements, my mentals move through
All the un-natural elements designed to disgroove
The harmony between, the scars on me and the
Contruction of character, I live with agony
As a re-occurant theme the motive is blood
I bleed, beneath the surface deep beneath my face I bleed
I believe, echoes in my mind as Apostle's Creed shines
My thoughts empower me, to devour the, strong side of me
Now cowardly I cry, As I try to defy three
Of the lovers in my world
Family true Earth and this music is my girl
Damn she used to love me, hope you dub me
Onto tape numerous times,
Then you lose generations and eventually lose mine
Non-existant, used to be positively persistant
Think about how myself forgot and now i'm jisted
Now I'm blacklisted, with flashbacks and nightmares
where i'm slash-wristed and my vertabrae is twisted
Point, I missed it, about life so take heed
To my audio-biographical sketch in which I bleed
[Chorus x2]
That's how my dark soul chose to bleed (what, what)
That's how my dark soul chose to bleed (what, what)
We've been runnin' oh so far, just as fast as our legs can go
I've been runnin' oh so far from the places and people I know
There's been some times that I miss you, many times that I don't
They come and go, they come and go
And if someone could cut me open they could see I only run so deep
Every ounce is being painted on the walls of my stomach while I sleep
And I've had some nights to remember, many nights that I don't
They come and go, they come and go
It feels like ever since forever I've been waiting on a downbound train
That only stops when it is ready to and every rider knows my name
And for every face I remember, there's a name that I don't
They come and go, they come and go
But lately I'm out of my head
Cause no matter how much I pretend
That I think I should be there my heart wants to be here instead
And lately I ain't been so strong
I've been good, I've been bad, I've been wrong
And the beat of my hearts been runnin' on these fumes for so long
And it's all I know
You can call off the search, man, there's no need to rescue me
I'm the last train to nowhere, there's nowhere I'd rather be
And it's leaving the station, and it's taking me home
And it's all that I know, I come and go
We come and go, we come and go
We come and go, we come and go
And it's all that I know, and it's all I know
You went to town on the one way train that you wanted
You got a job just to get some gain and you bought in
Oh I wish I would have known you then
I never would have called you friend
I should have known that a
I should have known you were phoney
I know you don't remember when
When everything you found was made of gold
And how we soon forget
None of this was ever set in stone
Those days are dead
And they will never come around no more
No more no more
You wait around just to see if the tables are turning
But from the ground we can see your buildings are burning
Now you don't know what lay ahead
Oh isn't this the day you dread
Cause now we know that a
And now we know you're a phoney
I know you don't remember when
When everything you found was made of gold
And how we soon forget
None of this was ever set in stone
Those days are dead
And they will never come around no more
No more no more
I know you don't remember when
When everything you found was made of gold
And how we soon forget
None of this was set in stone
Back in those days are dead
And they will never come around no more
No more no more
No more no more
No more no more
I, I've been around before
And lately I've been lost and on the lam
Nights, I've been lying on the floor
I think of things I know I'll never have
Oh, I don't understand
I'll be around til you go
My eyes have seen some things
The kind of things I never thought to see
For miles, the foothills frame the trail
The kind of place that makes you want to stay
And never want to leave
I'll be around til you go
I know the way
I know the way it ends
I've been before
I won't go back again
Won't go back again
[Verse]
Nobody's growing old together,
We've made it easy just to quit
Love has become a negative percentage,
Why do we bother to commit
[Verse]
We've got a long list of excuses,
Ways we try to justify
Well, I propose to you the truth is,
Marriage does not have to die
[Chorus]
I know you're feeling like it's falling apart
And it can't go on anymore
But God is a God who knows how to heal
So just give it up to the Lord
And He will restore
[Verse]
He said with this ring I promise,
And with I do she said forever
But right now if they're being honest
They don't know if they'll stay together
[Verse]
Let's fast forward to the future
After struggling on their own
They finally figured out they needed
Jesus in the middle
Now I'm watching God rebuild their home
[Chorus]
I know you're feeling like it's falling apart
And it can't go on anymore
But God is a God who knows how to heal
So just give it up to the Lord
And He will restore
[Bridge]
The enemy tries to come and divide
Trying to get us give up the fight
But darkness will always lose out to light
Cause we've got the power of Christ
On our side
I see you growing old together
I pray I find a love like yours
[Chorus]
So if you're feeling like it's falling apart
And it can't go on anymore
But God is a God who knows how to heal
So just give it up to the Lord
And He will restore
Like it was before
You may have strayed off course
I didn't know just what I was doing
Yeah maybe I was caught in a lie
It wasn't wrong, it wasn't right
It was stupid
Cause I don't think I'm one for communication
I like to wake up in the morning alive
And never think about any complications
They're something I don't wanna know
So cry like the rain, there's only one way it can come down
But I'd like to say I went the wrong way, yes I know now
The rain has to come down
And every bone in my whole body was broken
And everything in your whole body was fine
I saw your face swell up with emotion
I'm out of my mind
And I felt the climate change, all the colours turned from blue to gret
It makes me wonder if we never had spoken
Then you never would have known
So cry like the rain, there's only one way it can come down
But I'd like to say I went the wrong way, yes I know now
So cry like the rain, the only other way is to calm down
Cause I didn't mean it, I went the wrong way, yes I know now
The rain has to come down
I know you've been through this before, but I don't have the answer
And I've been there for you, other than this time
You've been through this before, and nothings not an answer
I've been there for you, other than this time
Oh it's cold
Huddled beside you
There's no way out now
We're here and we're not certain how
Don't you feel the bass in the back of you throat?
If you listen to the way they're just so stoked
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Because you've got nothing to say
And this place reeks of no fun
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Home.
She's on fire
As I hung back, loose with the liars
They're like dogs
Panting and dragging their tongues
But that isn't the way that I roll
I'm so tired of this place, what we gonna do?
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Because you've got nothing to say
This is lame, this is no fun
If you don't think we should stay, lets just leave
Lets just go home
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Just take me now and watch it all come crashing down
Just take me now and watch the sun burn on, burn out
Just take my hand and tell me that it's okay, just don't look away, uh oh
Cause in the blinking of an eye we'll all be gone
Now there's nothing left to say
Sat too long now it's too late
Come tomorrow we'll be gone
And there's nothing we can do
Cause the worst is coming true
It's the ending of us all
Just lay me down and watch the sky engulfed in smoke
The panicked people pass us by, they run, they go
Cause it's too late to try to rearrange this mess that we made, so we don't
But let me tell you there's no time and no place that I'd rather be than
today with you
Now there's nothing left to say
Sat too long now it's too late
Come tomorrow we'll be gone
And there's nothing we can do
Cause the worst is coming true
It's the ending of us all
Lets drop it all and watch it burn
There's no lesson left to learn
Come tomorrow this will all be gone
Cause the worst is coming true
I'm so happy here with you
Yeah, it's been a lonely road
I've been out singing about love with a heart of stone
That's when the going got tough
I spent some lonely nights on the longest highway home
This is the longest highway I've been on
On the loneliest day you've ever known
This one goes out to the fools
All you boys in the back hanging out, you got a love back home
But when you're with your friends
There's no goddamn place in the world that you'd rather be
This is the longest highway I've been on
On the loneliest day you've ever known
When the words that we say keep on coming out wrong
On the longest highway home
There was nothing I could do or say
Those lonely days still bother me
There was nothing I could say or do
Those lonely nights still bother you
Yeah, it's been a lonely road
I've been out spillin' my guts, but my guts don't know
Feels like the top of the world
If I was solid as a rock
Then I would roll for days, you know
And I could disappear
Faster than a spring time snow
Don't you hear the rocks beneath my feet?
They sing to me
To run
I feel the fire in my lungs
Is burning my insides to death
And now the runner I've become
Is holding on for one last breath
But as the sun sets I pick up my speed
And into the mountains on broken knees
I go
And I'm running home
Just as fast as my legs can go
I can't be along anymore
Don't you hear the rocks beneath my feet?
They sing
Oh these days I've been gone
I've been not inside my head
A long snooze lost in booze
A night I'll soon forget
Wrong turn, toss and turn
Wide awake in bed
She sleeps next to me
But I don't get no rest
Oh I think soon I'm gonna get myself in trouble
You can't keep yourself out of harm
Maybe this is what we get, holding on for one more kiss
Only to wake alone
But that's all I know
Oh these days I've been wrong
Many nights just don't compare
I do think it's better, I hope I remember
I'm sleeping once the morning comes
I'm sleeping once the morning comes
Soon I'm gonna get myself into trouble
You can't keep yourself out of harm
Maybe this is what we get, holding on for one last kiss
Only to wake alone
If I could read your mind I would make a start
And find a better way to speak to your heart
If I could read your eyes, I could see it through
You look, look away, look at what its come to, girl
Cause how could you be down, how could I be sweet
If I am just the one that you don't believe?
Forgetting the right, remember the wrong
It eats you up inside, how can we go on?
My baby don't be that way
You worry 'bout it too much
Have we run out of things to say?
Have we said too much?
Whatever you want from me
Don't worry 'bout anything
Late one night as I lie asleep
With my eyes shut tight, I'm gonna have a dream, here it goes
You wake up in the morning and you look outside
into the big, big yard, why would you stay inside? Cause you know
That in our big, big house on a quiet street
We be makin' love like you don't believe
Tonight's one night and a dreams a dream
But makin' all rights not hard, hard, hard as it seems
If you work with me
So baby don't be that way
Don't worry 'bout it too much
Because we'll run out of things to say
If we say too much
You know whatever you want from me
Don't worry 'bout anything
And if your girlfriends say that our love is wrong
To pack a big, big bag til your love is gone, and to go
Don't listen to them, don't listen to me
Listen to your heart, listen to that beat
Don't you worry 'bout what think
They don't mean a thing to us
Let them say what they need to say
It don't mean too much
Because whatever we want to be
Give me one good reason to change. You better turn your back and walk away.
Who are you to judge? You don't even know. I don't need your approval.
Act of kindness (don't look back) sign of weakness? A friendly gesture. (you blew me off)
Heart and soul was handed to you in a shrink wrapped package.
Inside my blood and tears, feelings that i supressed for years from people like you.
You don't owe me, there's nothing left to say. All i ask is listen.
So you put your cards on the table
You're here, you're willing and able
Do you really understand the challenge you've set yourself
You know I want to adore you
Can't believe how life was before you
I must apologize, please understand I'm so demanding
Don't need to be cruel
I never felt that with you
Trouble is I'm a danger to myself
Don't want to push you away
I really want you to stay
Until I figure this out, won't you
Please, come take me over
Let me leave me for awhile
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why
Understand the reason why
Every day is here to remind me
That the past is always behind me
Something I can never change but I won't let it hold me back
You arrived just in time
Now I know I'll be fine
I'm not ashamed to say you truly are my inspiration
Don't need to be cruel
I never felt that with you
Trouble is I'm a danger to myself
Don't want to push you away
I really want you to stay
Until I figure this out, won't you
Please, come take me over
Let me leave me for awhile
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why
Understand the reason why
Might not be forever
Baby whatever
We've got today, won't you
Please, come take me over
Let me leave me for awhile
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why
Please, come take me over
Let me leave me for awhile
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reasons why
Yesterday we ran along
A long, long way away from home
We didn't look back, we left it all
The only things we've ever known
Well I wanna know
Where do we go from here?
Along the way we came across
The only friends we've ever known
They gave us a hand. We trudged along
The only road we've ever known
We all wanna know
Where do we go from here?
We lift up our heads and sing along
The only song we've ever known
I'm dying to know
Some people never learn
Keep taking every turn
A little fast
Thinking nothing ever lasts
Descending (?) oh so sweet
Keep playing in my sleep
But when I wake
I can never recall a thing
And the reason being
Gives reason to everything
To this charmed life that we lead
Something is crying out
Through voices in my tears
Hear the voice crying out
In the strangest memories
Never mind
And reason being
Gives reason to everything
To this charmed life that we lead
Sorry to disappoint you
I never said that I could tell right from wrong
So don't put your faith on me now
I'll leave you in suspension
Till you fall
And the reason being
Gives reason to everything
To this short life that we lead
And the reason being
Oh it's cold
Huddled beside you
There's no way out now
We're here and we're not certain how
Don't you feel the bass in the back of you throat?
If you listen to the way they're just so stoked
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Because you've got nothing to say
And this place reeks of no fun
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Home.
She's on fire
They're like dogs
Panting and dragging their tongues
But that isn't the way that I roll
I'm so tired of this place, what we gonna do?
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
Because you've got nothing to say
This is lame, this is no fun
If you don't think we should stay, lets just leave
Lets just go home
If you don't think we should stay, we should go home
as i look into this old mirror
i see my reflection staring back at me
and who is this man i see before me
and why am i so afraid of what i see
please give me reason to live
please give me reason to breathe
a dead man walking, a dead man talking i am
full of imperfection, full of sin
how did i become like, like this
maybe, just maybe it always has been
please give me reason to live
please give me reason to breathe
please give me reason to live
please give me reason breathe
please give me reason to live
please give me reason to breathe
please give me reason to live
The world is turning in front of me and sometimes it's hard for me to let go
My flesh begins to rise and then I find out there's things I don't know
I'm standing here but no one cares, I'm crying out but no one is there
And I am me but who am I and will I ever find the reason (for life)
CHORUS
But I see you there, Your arms around me, Your arms around me
And I have no fear, You're all around me, You're all around me
You're all around
On this earth people live and die, wondering why (I wonder why)
They go through life feeling lost, never knowing who paid the cost
And Lord give me the strength to find the faith in this world
Help them to see the light in me, even though I'm so afraid (of it all)
CHORUS
And I am so afraid, then I remember the price You paid
CHORUS (w/ Phil singing 1st verse)
CHORUS
So you put your cards on the table
You're here, you're willing and able
Do you really understand the challenge you've set yourself
You know I want to adore you
Can't believe how life was before you
I must apologize, please understand I'm so demanding
Don't need to be cruel
I never felt that with you
Trouble is I'm a danger to myself
Don't want to push you away
I really want you to stay

Let me leave me for awhile
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why
Please, come take me over
Let me leave me for awhile
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reasons why
Understand the reason why
Reasons
When it´s dark and it´s cold
There´s a reason I need your warmth
It´s because of your fire
That´s the reason I´m waiting for
No reason to be ashamed
But reason for me to say
Oh girl do we have to wait
Yeah girl, do we have to wait any longer
Reason number one
First I need your love
Isn´t that reason enough
Reason number two
All I see is you
Reason is that I need you
Reasons
Now even though we´ve been down
There´s no reason to be afraid
Cause we can start anytime and forget about yesterday
Oh no reason to say you´re scared
The reason is waiting there
Just open your heart to me
We´re stronger now, girl, you see, yeah
So much stronger
Reason number one
First I need your love
Isn´t that reason enough
Reason number two
All I see is you
And there´s another reason too
Reasons
Reason, ninety-six, baby
Come here quick
There´s another reason too
I see people hating other people
Tell me what's the reason
That your kid is hungry, you ain't got no money
What's the reason?
By the time of age nine I'm already decidin'
If I can protect mommy from the hood by fightin'
Or usin' a knife or a gun when I'm twenty-one
By by then them hoods woulda pushed their way in our apartment
And we die then, so I been a young nervous wreck in the projects
Watchin' them older niggaz pass pot and they high man
I'm just a young boy, snot nose, hair nappy
Cops ride by squeezin' their trigger fingers at me
So I would go to school and try to get good grades
Teacher wrote mommy and kicked me outta school for havin' braids
So she cussed them, said "My son ain't no motherfuckin' hoodlum"
They judged us, thinking that we dumb 'cause where we come from
Got a little older and now I see
Young niggaz wanted by the powers that be (powers that be)
I see people hating other people
Tell me what's the reason
That your kid is hungry, you ain't got no money
What's the reason?
For these wars we're fighting with each other
Season after season
When you're workin' hard, but there ain't nothing comin'
What's the reason?
Uh, picture a Black nanny and a baby in a basket pushin' down 5th Ave
She never had it, it's not hers to begin with
She gives it breakfast, baths and dinners
Treats it so tender while her own kids live alone at home with no phone on
Ain't had a good meal in so long, but so long as mommy's a maid
Cookin' and cleanin', she wanna feed her kids and her kids are dreamin'
Where's my daddy, who's my daddy, have you seen him?
I could imagine them askin', what type of human be-ing
Could leave his family, go back to the Carribean?
Was he locked up, shot up, does he have freedom?
Mom said wipe your tears, keep readin'
But daddy's somewhere, spirit broken, feelin' defeated
A man feels he has to conquer all
The world is his oyster, his pearl so y'all know
I can't find no reason why we can't all live in peace
'Cause this world keeps spinning, yet still I wonder what's the reason
I see people hating other people
Tell me what's the reason
When you're workin' hard but there ain't nothin' comin'
What's the reason?
Oooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
I know a girl, her boyfriend was a fugitive
She's intuitive, be on some stupid shit
She called the cops 'cause she hated his mother
Now he away doin' numbers, now she gay with her lover
How many niggaz gon' die this summer?
I pump life in my music, but still life is a wonder
There's a officer in a squad car, he's a prostitute serial killer
It's odd, huh? 'Cause he's the same cop in church with his wife
He's molestin' his son and she ignores it at night
Little bad ass bastard, lights a match and kills Betty Shabazz
in her pad while she slept
They said Prescott Bush funded Hitler while the world's in a twister
Nigga, what you expect? Imagine what's next
I see people hating other people
Tell me what's the reason
That your kid is hungry, you ain't got no money
What's the reason?
For these wars we're fighting with each other
Season after season
When you're workin' hard, but there ain't nothing comin'
What's the reason?
"Uh, uh, man, man'll search the whole planet, looking for what
Try to conquer all. So what? To all my niggaz with they
kids that love they kids, man. All the daddies out there
To all the niggaz that died tryin'a figure out what's what
Tryin'a be the biggest of the big, you know. Yeah, yeah
Ladies forgive us. Gotta forgive us. For we know not what
we do. Breakin' hearts, leavin' the crib, buggin' out and
I get the feeling I'm not wanted here. You could've told me earlier. You get me wondering what's on your mind. You won't return my calls. Give me a reason for tearing my heart in two. I can't believe that I fell for a girl like you. What possessed you to mess with my head. I guess I shoul've never tried. It's kind of awkward how foolish I felt. I never would've thought you lied.
Peeling the layers
to expose the facts
was like spraying
and ancient painting
with ammonia
Faces melted,
colours turned pale,
shapes lost their vivacity
and essences faded
to distracted blurs
Now the canvas is all white
and my hands are unsoiled
Still all reasons seems replaced
By the false notion of a lucid portrait
Yet again, the savage remains
This empty work of art still gains a crowd
The blind eagerly discuss
the liveliness of its colours
and the deaf insist
it's accompanied by quiet chants
The painter,
a highly praised
but anonymous deity,
lurks in the periphery of the exhibition
amused by the fuzz he is causing,
despite his many flaws
The canvas is all white
and my hands are unsoiled
Still all reasons seems replaced
Breeze blowin' sand between my toes
The whole worlds at peace for a moment and I'm holding on.
I'm holding on for a reason.
The day is going, everybody here
Is waiting for a shooting star so they can wish away their fears.
But I'm still holding on for a reason.
(Chorus)
The reason that I wake up in the morning and I live my life.
The reason that I keep going through the darkest night.
Baby, you are, Oh you are my reason.
The skies getting darker, the nights coming in
I'm missing you so much right now, but I just can't give in to the
heartache
'Cause it will break me to my last inch.
I'm still holdin' on, yeah I'm holdin' on for a reason.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
And I know that one day you'll come back for me.
But for now I'll reminisce on those memories
When we were younger, laughed harder, thought deeper, not smarter.
Thats my reason for holding on.
Baby you are, Oh you are, you are my reason.
Mmmm.
There's something in your eyes I know I can't resist.
Something in the air, I don't know why.
you were hardly there when i was on my own.
theres something about you that makes me cry.
You were hardly there when I was on my own.
There's something about you that makes me cry.
Can I believe
That your heart still beats for me?
Let me receive
A sign that you're my destiny.
I wanna know.
Give me a reason
For me to believe in,
Can't you see it in my eyes?
That I need a reason,
For I'm still breathing.
Is it time to say goodbye?
'Cause deep in my heart I know
There's a reason
Why I am not leaving,
Why I'm not alone.
So give me a reason
For me to believe in,
give me a reason.
give me a reason
give me a reason
something in your eyes still takes my breath away
something deep inside please tell me why
I don't know what I should do to break this spell
how can you make my life an alibi
Can I believe
That your heart still beats for me?
Let me receive
A sign that you're my destiny.
I wanna know.
Give me a reason
For me to believe in,
Can't you see it in my eyes?
That I need a reason,
For I'm still breathing.
Is it time to say goodbye?
'Cause deep in my heart I know
There's a reason
Why I am not leaving,
Why I'm not alone.
So give me a reason
For me to believe in,
give me a reason.
give me a reason
give me a reason
give me a reason
jupiter said remember when you’d move a mountain
so many ways you’d wanna let go
when dreams of better days don’t exist my friend
just break the wall to find the centre
jupiter said in time you’ll see you have no feeling
no course of thought and no direction
forget the easy way and sit in your cell
for other chances to deliver
i need a reason to find your flesh and bone
why need a reason now go my son
i need a reason to start a war against them all
why need a reason now go my son
now bellow on the sick call
i know it’ll be somewhere
my soul is there
i need a reason to find your flesh and bone
why need a reason now go my son
i need a reason to start a war against them all
why need a reason now go my son
now bellow on the sick call
i know it’ll be somewhere
my soul is there
now bellow on the sick call
i know it’ll be somewhere
Upon the rivers of the day
It blows a cool breeze in the air
Of thoughts and shimmering hours of May
And all its feelings
I dared to walk down by the lane
Calm and fearless in the rain
I felt that you were by my side
Calm and tender
You are the reason for this May
Has washed the purple clouds away
You are the reason for this May
Has washed the purple clouds away
You are the reason for this May
Is warm and fills me with its rays
Listen, all the time we witness miracles,
All the time!
We thought that anyone that has a life
Bear the cross of the passion and of the time
Oh, the way I was blind!
The time I stumbled over your blue eyes
I felt like falling into a pool of joy
And a sort of miracle happened
The ancient fortress vanished at your smile
You are the reason for this May
Has blown all darkness far away
You are the reason for this May
Is warm and fills me with its rays
I think it's time to talk with you
Think it's time to realize
Where is the love?
Are we gonna stay together?
Or is it time to say goodbye?
Where is the love?
Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Give me a reason
Give me a reason
Time has come to set things right
Is it worth another fight?
Tell me the truth
Is there something on your mind?
Tell me what you hide inside
Tell me the truth
Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got
There's something in your eyes I know I can't resist
Something in the air I don't know why
You were hardly there when I was on my own
There's something about you that makes me cry
Can't I believe?
That your heart still beats for me
Let me receive
A sign that you're my destiny
And I wanna know
Give me your reason for me to believe in
Can you see it in my eyes?
And I need your reason for I'm so breathing
Is it time to say good bye?
'Cause deep in my heart...I know
There's a reason why I'm not living
Why I'm not alone
So give me your reason for me to believe in
Give me your reason...
Give me your reason...
Something in your eyes still takes my breathe away
Something's deep inside, please tell me why
I don't know what I should do to break this spell
When the puzzle connects
It's like you never forget
The way it's got to be
It's nobody's concern
Cause they don't know how it burns
When you're not here with me
So am I wrong or up my way in the sky
Cause I can never deny
These feelings
How can I ever stop
When I don't want to give up
This is my reason
Reason (repeat)
Cause I get you, I get you
And you get me, you get me
It's that simple, It's that simple
Don't matter what we are
Cause we don't ever fall
When the puzzle connects
It's like you never forget
The way it's got to be
It's nobody's concern
Cause they don't know how it burns
When you're not here with me
So am I wrong or up my way in the sky
Cause I can never deny
These feelings
How can I ever stop
When I don't want to give up
This is my reason
Nothing to say, nothing to do, nowhere to go,
And I can't get over it and be with you.
I don't know what to say,
I don't know what to do
I don't know what you want...
Is there anything that I can do?
'Cause if you weren't somewhere else instead
If you were in someone else's bed
If you were...
The look on your face
You'd told us to come here
A reason to be
Escaping from reality
I'll fight you in fear, indefinitely
A reason to be
Escaping from reality
'Cause if you weren't someone else insetad
If you were in someone else's head
If you were...
Nothing to say, nothing to do, nowhere to go,
And I can't get over it and be with you.
I don't know what to say,
I don't know what to do,
I don't know what you want...
Is there anything that I should do?
'Cause ifyou in someone else's bed
If you were in someone else's head
And everybody will get to play
The hand they're given
And everybody will deserve
The space they live in
And everybody will get to feel
Some peace within
And everybody will get
Someone to walk with
'Cause there must be a reason
Why you're keepin' me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
And everybody will lead a life
They feel will matter
And everybody will know such a simple thing
Like laughter
'Cause there must be a reason
Why you're keepin' me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
The fear is gone
There's place where everybody goes
After all the feelings show
There's a secret everybody knows
After all the fear is gone
There's place where everybody goes
After all the feelings show
There's a secret everybody knows
Yeah, there must be a reason
Why you're keepin' me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
Yeah, there must be a reason
Why you're keepin' me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
She don't cry anymore
She can't feel anything
The poor don't make her sad anymore
Sometimes she can't see a reason
TO BE HERE DYING WITH A PASSION-FILLED HEART
SO FAR GONE
DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START
I DON'T CARE
THERE'S A REASON
AND I KNOW A MAN WHO CAN SAVE US ALL
HE'S NOT BLIND AND HE CAN SEE
THERE'S A REASON FOR IT ALL
She don't know where to start (Nowhere to start)
Lost child running on a star-filled night
Trying to show her the way (Jesus is the Way)
Know you're gonna fall
Just can't tell which way
TO BE HERE DYING WITH A PASSION-FILLED HEART
SO FAR GONE
DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START
I DON'T CARE
THERE'S A REASON
AND I KNOW A MAN WHO CAN SAVE US ALL
HE'S NOT BLIND AND HE CAN SEE
THERE'S A REASON FOR IT ALL
I DON'T CARE
THERE'S A REASON
AND I KNOW A MAN WHO CAN SAVE US ALL
HE'S NOT BLIND AND HE CAN SEE
THERE'S A REASON
JESUS IS THE REASON
AND HE'S THE MAN WHO CAN SAVE US ALL
HE'S NOT BLIND
HE CAN SEE
Hazel O`Connor
There is the house that we build on dreams
and crazy schemes
There is the fireside, we'd sit and talk, in peace and warm
There is the room where we made our love,
we made a child
There is the hospital where baby left and reason died
All of these memories, haunting me
I need to find a new way to be
I need a new reason
I'm searching for something to have and hold
Something with meaning
I need a new reason, I need a new goal
There is the kitchen where we smashed our cups,
smashed our love
There is the road where I'd run away when I'd had enough
All of these memories, haunting me
I need to find a new way to be
I need a new reason
I'm searching for something to have and hold
Something with meaning
I need a new reason, I need a new goal
There is the house where I'd arrive all dead inside
Where is the man who made me feel so alive
i am always here when you
can't find or choose your way
go quietly i try to guide you
without you realising it
here i try to save you
even if i often fight you
here i try to guide you
without changing your main way
here i try to tell you
all the dangers you can't see
here i try to help you
when i see you so confused
the right side of reason
tries to guide you on your way
the right side of reason
tries to guide you through the days
when i see you so confused
when i feel you so despaired
so quietly i guide you
Round and round
turning round,
where are you tonight?
Could there be
a sweeter sound,
than to call your name?
Magic moments
that we share,
melodies of life.
There is nothing
to compare,
one thing you should know.
3.(refrain)
´Cause baby
you gave me a reason to love you,
you made me believe that it´s true.
You gave me a reason to love you,
now I wanna tell it to you.
´Cause I´m down on my knees
beggin you please,
listen to me one more time.
´Cause baby
you gave me a reason to love you,
just tonight.
You´re hand in mine
and candlelight,
how easy it could be.
Need the moment
to arrive,
to tell you how I feel.
5.(refrain)
baby
you gave me a reason to love you,
you made me believe that it´s true.
You gave me a reason to love you,
now I wanna tell it to you.
´Cause I´m down on me knees
beggin you please,
listen to me one more time.
´Cause baby
you gave me a reason to love you
just tonight.
If there´s a reason to be,
it´s simple for me to see.
The magic between us,
the look in your eyes
is what it means to me.
You gave me a reason to love you,
you made me belive that it´s true.
You gave me a reson to love you,
now I wanna tell it to you.
´Cause I´m down on my knees
beggin you please,
listen to me one more time.
´Cause baby
You gave me a reason to love you,
just tonight,
I've been away, been away, been away too long
And I've been gone, gone twenty seven days, haven't been so strong
I got some bad blood rushing through my veins as it rots my bones
Now the lone, lone devil on my shoulder says my love is gone
There must be something in the way, cause it won't come back
I ain't got one thing I could say, I could say no more
I made my way, made my way, made my way back home
I got used to living for the day, now I live alone
I could say, I'm okay, I;m okay though I know I'm not
This heart in me has been replaced and it's made of stone
I think you should get away, get away from me before I start to rust
Before the pain, pain, pain in my stomach turns my bones to dust
Oh, it's such a shame, shame, shame, I complain though I know I'm wrong
Now I got nothing left to say except my love is gone
Now I got nothing left to say except my love is gone
Reason
Strange how summer blossoms
blew away so late this year
falling from above, soft as snow
all around you
The days, I'd like to bring back
side by side with you
and peer through that old black window
and see red-blue skies so near, but
say the word
and I'll be ready to make a sacrifice
stay - don't turn around
there's only one reason
all my life I wished I was here
looking for a chance to cry out
all the pain that turned me into stone
and thoughts that haunt me day by day
the word is "now"
I'm ready to make my sacrifice
pray - imagine all the things
that I never talk about
stay - don't turn around
you're the only one
won't you save me, take me away
there's no more reason to hide
try to make stand
it's not only tears in my eyes
somehere I'm alone... whithout you
"flowers of light descend
as the twilight strangles the sky
may I, in this vast world
ever find another soul
to contamplate my silence, forever..."
won't you save me, take me away
I've felt so lost I've tried
hold me, help me stand
don't mind the tears in my eyes someday we'll pass away
take a breath and smile
fortune is to be alive
You say you love me but you can not leave him
So now I'm leaving you this here same reason
Cause times change and so do the seasons
And the seasons changed
So I listen to what you say
But I don't believe a word you say
You say you love me but you can not leave him
So now I'm leaving you this here same reason
Cause times change and so do the seasons
And the seasons changed
So I listen to what you say
But I don't believe a word you say
I just wanted to get over you
But I can't stop thinking about you
Not a second goes by that you're not in my head
You dick me over again and again
But I still remained your friend
It's time for this to end
You say you love me but you can not leave him
So now I'm leaving you this here same reason
Cause times change and so do the seasons
And the seasons changed
Will you still love me tomorrow?
For way too long you fucked with my mind
I've sang this song way too many times
And you need to know it's gone on for too long
Thought it would be just the two of us in the end
But now I'm leaving and you're not even my friend
Was the way you felt for real
You say you love me but you can not leave him
So now I'm leaving you this here same reason
Cause times change and so do the seasons
And the seasons changed
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Tonight i fell the love in your eyes
Will you still love me tomorrow?
You say you love me but you can not leave him
So now I'm leaving you this here same reason
Cause times change and so do your feelings
And your feelings changed
And will he love me tomorrow?
