Ain't No Reason - Brett Dennen
There ain't no reason things are this way

It's how they always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way

We do it every day

Preachers on the podium speaking of saints

Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change

Old ladies laughing from the fire escape

Cursing my name

I gotta a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
A window and a pigeon with a broken wing

You can spend your whole life working for something

Just to have it taken away

People walk around pushing back their debts

Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets

Talking about nothing not thinking about death

Every little heartbeat every little breath

People walk a tightrope on a razors edge

Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons

It could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen
Or a thought or a word or a sentence

There ain't no reason things are this way

It's how they've always been and they intend to stay

I don't know why I say the things I say
But I say them anyway

But love will come set me free

Love will come set me free I do believe

Love will come set me free I know it will

Love will come set me free yes

Prison walls still standing tall

Some things never change at all

Keep on building prisons gonna fill them all

Keep on building bombs gonna drop them all

Working your fingers bare to the bone
Breaking' your back make you sell your soul

Like a lung it's filled with coal

Suffocating slow

The wind blows wild and I may move

But politicians lie and I am not fooled
You don't need no reason or a three piece suit

To argue the truth

The air on my skin and the world under my toes

Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes

Chaos and commotion wherever I go

Love I try to follow

Love will come set me free

Love will come set me free I do believe

Love will come set me free I know it will

Love will come set me free yes

There ain't no reason things are this way

It's how they've always been and they intend to stay

I can't explain why we live this way

We do it every day
