Gotta Be A Reason
Alec Benjamin
There’s gotta be a reason
That I’m here on Earth
Gotta be a reason
For the dust and the dirt
The changing of the seasons
Never changed my hurt
So what’s it worth
What’s it worth?
With another shot of whiskey
And another sip of gin
Another drop of poison
That is slowly sinkin’ in
If we’re going down together
Better take another hit
We won’t be here forever
So let’s make the best of it
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Walking down to the burial ground
With a sad song in his brain
General Cloud is an old man now
But it feels like yesterday
He was on the front lines
Stranded on the beach
Crawling to his best friend
Floatin’ in the sea
But he didn’t make it
He still can’t believe
How arbitrary fate is
He says...
There’s gotta be a reason
That I’m here on Earth
Gotta be a reason
For the dust and the dirt
The changing of the seasons
Never changed my hurt
So what’s it wort
What’s it worth?
With another shot of whiskey
And another sip of gin
Another drop of poison
That is slowly sinkin’ in
If we’re going down together
Better take another hit
We won’t be here forever
So let's make the best of it
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
She went down to her job in town
With a sad song in her heart
33 with a wasted dream
To become a movie star
Living outta a suitcase
Serving at a bar
Saving up some pennies
Working after dark
Is she gonna make it?
She still can’t believe
How arbitrary fate is
She says...
There’s gotta be a reason
That I’m here on Earth
Gotta be a reason
For the dust and the dirt
The changing of the seasons
Never changed my hurt
So what’s it worth
What’s it worth?
With another shot of whiskey
And another sip of gin
Another drop of poison
That is slowly sinkin’ in
If we’re going down together
Better take another hit
We won’t be here forever
So let’s make the best of it
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
There’s gotta be a reason
That I’m here on Earth
Gotta be a reason
For the dust and the dirt
The changing of the seasons
Never changed my hurt
So what’s it worth
What’s it worth?
With another shot of whiskey
And another sip of gin
Another drop of poison
That is slowly sinkin’ in
If we’re going down together
Better take another hit
We won’t be here forever
So let’s make the best of it
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
