The Reason Why - Ron Sexsmith

As all the rooms are full of empties

The wine attempts to tempt me

Would you help me disappear

And we’ll let the path go hungry

And head at last to country

Or a small town away from here

And maybe there we’ll finally see

There is no need to try

All our lives

For a reason why

'Cause when the moon is glowing dimly

Upon our hopeful chimney

Trouble simply reappears

To throw a monkey wrench in

And hold the world’s attention

With a show of surreal fear

Hoping for an answer

I glance up to indifferent skies

There’s no reply

Or a reason why

All we would hear is a deafening silence

Hollywood tears in frivolous times

Oh to be near your love

You can wonder where the time went

Or what it was it all meant

It’s been a life spent wondering why

Looking for a name

Or coat to pin the blame on

I’m done sighing

For a reason why

Reason why

Reason why

Reason Why

All we would hear is a deafening silence
