Reason Ain't Our Long Suit

[00:26.77] We turned our questions into burning obsessions.
[00:31.49] Some asked: "Why me?"
[00:32.98] Others cried: "Why everybody else except me? Accept me!"
[00:37.72] Answers proved aloof or elusive
[00:42.32] And always seemed to be conducive to mood swings.
[00:46.88] With tempers flaring we took those tattered chi's and ideologies out of their vaults.
[00:56.08] Our faults aren't our fault.
[01:01.40] Now we're better than ever.
[01:15.60] We drowned our problems in the whiskey.
[01:18.06] The bottom of the bottle dripped as clean as our conscience and we slept unconscious.
[01:25.93] We smoked our drugs and cigarettes to cleanse regrets, and always betted on regretting the outcome.
[01:34.56] We did, and then some...
[01:36.82] We rinsed our nicotine stained fingers double clean.
[01:41.75] We dropped back to default. Our faults aren't our fault.
[01:50.15] Now we're better than ever.
[02:18.38] (1, 2, 3, 4...)
[02:24.67] Regressions left our lessons laid out for our attention.
[02:30.96] A tension left us open to change.
[02:35.17] Three cheers for hoping!
[02:37.66] Reason ain't our long suit.
