Give Me A Reason (Live In Studio)

Hand hold 'cause it's real sweet

Like I been told so repeatedly

The TV speaks to my body heat

I'm learning lines I should not repeat

I feel bad when you're feelin' me

Feelin' sad 'stead of feelin' strongly

Full of misnomers that I still repeat

Like a missed homer's got 'em on their feet

Current bringing in the gold leaves

Rock hard but I'm still weak

Erosion keeping wounds opening

It's better wetter guess I like the deep

I left out what you meant to me

I stress, I'm only talking 'bout me

Dropped an anchor where you used to be

Watching waves take everything

Convince me I'm wrong

Give me a reason

For going along

With my heart beating

What's keeping you strong?

What's keeping you breathing?

Where did I go wrong?

With my heart beating

Let 'em in at an arm's length

Box 'em out 'cause I'm so mean

Skim the surface, keep it nice and neat

I don't play to keep, I just play to beat

Storytellers tellin' precious lies

"Special someone" that's a precious lie

But we can get it if you're down to ride

Long as everybody's clarified

Keep that shit from spreadin' pesticides

Sinking deeper in behind your eyes

Growth you barely swear you're verified

Adam's Eve, apple of my eye

Separate 'em like your work from life

So important they do not combine

Keep assuming that you're fortified

You the warden 'til you're stuck inside

Convince me I'm wrong

Give me a reason

For going along

With my heart beating

What's keeping you strong?

What's keeping you breathing?

Where did I go wrong?

With my heart beating

Convince me I'm wrong (Convince me I'm wrong)

Give me a reason (Give me a reason)

For going along (Tell me I'm in love)

With my heart beating (Whoa-whoa-ooh-ooh, yeah)

What's keeping you strong? (What's keeping you strong?)

What's keeping you breathing? (Give me a reason)

Where did I go wrong? (Tell me I'm in love)

With my heart beating (Whoa-whoa-ooh-ooh, yeah)
