just give me a reason
from don't easily shame by cassorla
lyrics
beer then liquor works much quicker than the other way
powders pills the dirty thrills don't mix well when onstage
in those moments before the show
when you just wanna blow off your ear like Van Gogh
just give me a reason
a simple logical reason
a something personal reason
to go on
my close friends that come to spend their money here tonight
know to clear the back while we're advancing (proceeding) to stage right
when the spotlight goes up I always tell myself yup, I can be ready to wreck this club
there's a certain grace in curtains slowly do they tell
did you win or did you fail to wrap them in your spell
and is that question enough to get me off of my butt and show the audience my best stuff
faces betray traces of anxiety about
whether folks can weather nasty hurricanes I spout
so I finish my drink and close my eyes I can link my words much better now here's what I want
when it's done I'll be the one
with sweat stains on my back
at the hotel all my skin cells now can hit the sack
everybody wants just a little piece but my trust is in the question that we should discuss
powders pills the dirty thrills don't mix well when onstage
in those moments before the show
when you just wanna blow off your ear like Van Gogh
just give me a reason
a simple logical reason
a something personal reason
to go on
my close friends that come to spend their money here tonight
know to clear the back while we're advancing (proceeding) to stage right
when the spotlight goes up I always tell myself yup, I can be ready to wreck this club
there's a certain grace in curtains slowly do they tell
did you win or did you fail to wrap them in your spell
and is that question enough to get me off of my butt and show the audience my best stuff
faces betray traces of anxiety about
whether folks can weather nasty hurricanes I spout
so I finish my drink and close my eyes I can link my words much better now here's what I want
when it's done I'll be the one
with sweat stains on my back
at the hotel all my skin cells now can hit the sack
everybody wants just a little piece but my trust is in the question that we should discuss
