Man of the Flood - New Philosophy Lyrics

Give me a reason
A reason to be
A whole new philosophy
Don't know what you're thinking
Don't know what's going on
Or what's going wrong
I lost my way I can't go on
Now I just need a good reason
'Cause if I can't see
What does that make me?
And I can't seem to read you lately
This feeling's new it's been some time
I'm all alone inside my mind
And honestly I've missed the quiet
But where's the reason I can't find it
Give me a reason
A reason to be
A whole new philosophy
No more excuses
Why can't I just move on
Now that the visions are gone
The only way to move is forward
'Tween life and death I'd choose the former
But really what's the point of living
Without the gift that I've been given
Oh it's a whole new situation
All of my schemes and machinations
Right out the window with my future
I only wish I'd seen it sooner
The future never felt so far
It's all unexpected
And in my head it's getting pretty hard
'Cause the present is a different state of mind
So I guess I'll change mine
Give me a reason
A reason to be
A whole new philosophy
I wish I could leave it
But I'm having withdrawals
And I got no one to call
Always looking for a why but I can tell
An answer isn't what I'll get
Now I try to pass the time but I can't get the future out my f*ckin head
Got me living in the past
Oh isn't that some kinda twisted joke
Universe lets out a laugh
And the irony is that I'll never know
Oh I could see
But now I'm in the present
Killin me
But only if I let it
Wish that we
Could work it out
But now its gone
Without a doubt
I'll never be
Able to forget
It's part of me
But now I gotta shed it
Growing up
I'm moving on
Still gotta live
My sight is gone
I lost everything I know and now I gotta
Live with what I see (unh!)
Might be harder than you think
I throw the kitchen sink
It's still a mystery
I lost everything I know and now I gotta
Try and live with what I see
I guess that's just the way it goes
A weight is off my shoulders
Got me feeling free
(Hello?)
