about

Not sure how this one came about to be honest, except that it's pretty angry. It's one I have heaps of fun singing live though, and usually ends with me jumping off the drum kit or speaker stack and hurting myself. Very blues. So ultimately it's the song I'm most likely to make a complete tit of myself on stage with - Al (vocals)

lyrics

Give me a reason for the things we say
Give me a reason for the promises we break
Give me a reason for the time we waste
Give me a reason

Give me a reason for the hole in sky
Give me a reason for the useless shit we buy
Give me a reason for the never-ending greed
Always taking more than we need

Can you hear it now…

Give me a reason for the way things change
Give me a reason why progress don’t mean a damn thing
Give me a reason to get under your skin
Give me a reason

Give me a reason I should carry on
I got my reasons but I just can’t stop feeling wrong
Give me a reason I should reach for the truth
I keep reaching – all the time it was you
Can you hear it now

Can you hear it?
