Just A Reason Lyrics

The weight upon my shoulders

Isn't very clear for everyone to see

The fact that I'm still moving

Means they keep demanding everything from me

And one day soon is coming

When the breath I take is gonna be my last

Maybe then they'll realize

My misery was more than just an act

The pain inside my body

From a wound that has me bleeding at my core

I'm told it's just a heartache

And it won't be long until it hurts no more

It's just a bunch of nonsense

That will soon be passing from my weary head

Perhaps they'll reconsider

When this nonsense runs its course and leaves me dead

The cloud that hovers over

Raining memories of fire through my mind

But they can't grasp the damage

So, they pat my back and tell me I'll be fine

And all the cries for help I made

For some kind hand to intervene and save

I wonder if they'll get it

Once they gather round to set me in my grave

They say it's just a reason

For me getting out of doing my fair share

But I'm not being selfish

If I can't give something that's no longer there

Cast your judgment on me

And when at last I have reached my bitter end

They'll understand at last

That all I really ever needed was a friend
