Duncan Sheik Reasons For Living
Everyone's looking
Everyone hides
Everyone's telling
Everyone lies
Changing the subject
Turning away
Away from the
Heart of it all
You say you are happy
Do you think this is fun?
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
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
Don't seem that different
'Cause nothing has changed
Try to remember
Try to remember
When we were just
Running in place
Reasons for living
Never come cheap
Even your best ones
Can put me to sleep
What I am saying
Trying to say
Is that there
Must be a better way
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
It's already in you
It's already there
You may disagree
But I don't really care
Did you ever find out
Did you ever find out
What's at the heart of us?
Did you ever find out
Did you ever find out
What's at the heart?
Tell me all your
Wildest dreams
You don't really care
You don't know what they mean
Raiding the closets
Skeleton keys
You know it's
Easier than you think
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
The 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
