Reason Ain't Our Long Suit - Boys Night Out

Some asked: «Why me?»

Others cried: «Why everybody else except me?

Accept me!»

Answers proved aloof or elusive

And always seemed to be conducive to mood swings

With tempers flaring we took those tattered chi’s and ideologies out of their

vaults

Our faults aren’t our fault

Now we’re better than ever

We drowned our problems in the whiskey

The bottom of the bottle dripped as clean as our conscience and we slept

unconscious

We smoked our drugs and cigarettes to cleanse regrets, and always betted on

regretting the outcome

We did, and then some…

We rinsed our nicotine stained fingers double clean

We dropped back to default.

Our faults aren’t our fault

Now we’re better than ever

Regressions left our lessons laid out for our attention

A tension left us open to change

Three cheers for hoping!

Reason ain’t our long suit
