lyrics

The Reason Why

I'm just trying to do some good
Telling these stories from my open book
I'd rather be the guy who makes a stand
Than turn my back and not give a damn

You'll always find me on a one-way track
I never waste time on looking back
And yeah, I know there's been a few wrong turns
But how else do you learn?

Oh oh oh yeah
And that's the reason why
Oh oh oh yeah
I can still hold my head up high
Oh oh oh yeah
And that's the reason why
Oh oh oh yeah
Rather burn out than live a lie

I love the start of a brand new day
Guess maybe I'm just made that way
I'll take luck if it's at my door
But it's not something I go looking for

And I could bullshit but what's the use
The world don't need another lame excuse
If I'm wrong I'll hold up my hand
It's made me what I am

Oh oh oh yeah
And that's the reason why
Oh oh oh yeah
I can still hold my head up high
Oh oh oh yeah
And that's the reason why
Oh oh oh yeah
Rather burn out than live a lie

It’s better to die on your feet
Than live on your knees

Oh oh oh yeah
And that's the reason why
Oh oh oh yeah
I can still hold my head up high
Oh oh oh yeah
And that's the reason why
Oh oh oh yeah
Rather burn out than live a lie
