Merrick Brannigan - The Reason Lyrics

I'm living in a monochromatic dream
I've got to rewire my brain
I'm putting out fires while my circuits stream
Out my eyes and right down the drain
I paint my emotions on people I see
I bring 'em all down like a brand new regime
I have become my own priority
Nothing to lose when you're falling to pieces
I am the reason
I'm enveloped by a blanket of burning stars
Supernovas just bound to explode
And my conscience, oh it takes me way too far
'Cause every night I wallow in my pity, I gotta leave this city
But I couldn't if I tried
Oh, I paint my emotions on people I see
I bring 'em all down like a brand new regime, mmm
I have become my own priority
Nothing to lose when you're falling to pieces
I am the reason
The reason the engine don't run the same way
The reason it feels like I'm fading away
The reason my family is starting to fray
The reason you wonder if I'll be okay
The reason this life is a detuned guitar
The reason we drink and we've drowned at the bar
The reason that people aim straight for my heart
The reason she runs 'till we're too far apart
The reason I hold on to branches that break
The reason I make every little mistake
Because I have become my own priority
Nothing to lose when you're falling to pieces
I am the reason
