Nothing Happens for a Reason
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was living
Long before you were
I live to help you
And still your own way you prefer
You shrug your shoulders
I retreat to mine
Open the paper
And as you read me line by line
Overreact to nothing
Because nothing sinks in
A dam of cheap distractions
To hold your grief in
Though pools of guilt will stagnate
They will never reach the brim
Overreact to nothing
Because nothing's sinking in
If you can hear me
Nod or give a sign
I had the last word
Can I redo it one more time?
I'll keep my distance
I'll keep my sanity
I'll keep my distance
Because you'll never see me
Overreact to nothing
Because nothing sinks in
A dam of cheap distractions
To hold your grief in
And pools of guilt will stagnate
But you"ll never reach the brim
Overreact to nothing
Because nothing's sinking in
Overreact to nothing
