lyrics

This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason

Like a domino knocking all down
The ticking time clock will follow you around
Being the same will soon make you fall
So be proud to be unusual

This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason

Like a bird taking off to a new sky
My body and soul return to life
I was given a second chance
Take my hand and learn to fly again

I was ashamed, I was afraid
In this world of error
I was hiding, I was crying
In this world of lies
I came back, sure of myself
In this world of tears
I believe, I am here
In this world of twist

This is the reason
The reason to play with my mind
It's the reason

For the weight felt from my back
I wrote this stomping soundtrack
I won’t be sorry of being too loud
Puffed body I’m just going on proud

I’m the ruler of my own world
At this point there is no return
Time of doubt has to end
Running free we shall not pretend

I’m not ashamed, I’m not afraid
In this world of error
I’m not hiding, I’m smiling
In this world of lies
I came back, sure of myself
In this world of tears
I believe, I’m here
In this world of twist

This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
The reason to play with my mind

This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
This is the reason
The reason to play with my mind
