It was the perfect excuse to get drunk   As if lately I've needed one   It Was the perfect excuse to buy bullets   For the barrel of my favorite gun      It was the perfect way to show you   How it feels inside of me   And the perfect way to find out   How it feels to set me free      Reasons   I keep looking for reasons   I thought that I had loved you   I did the best I could      Reasons   I keep looking for reasons   I lost the reason for me living   And that just ain't no good      I know that three's a crowded room   But really, this won't take long   I want to meet the man, help him to understand   What he did when he broke up our home      And I'll be going now to a place I know   That's deep, dark and quiet   Away from pain and the undying shame   Of me and my unfaithful wife      Reasons   I keep looking for reasons   I thought that I had loved you   I did the best I could      Reasons   I keep looking for reasons   I lost the reason for me living   And that just ain't no good   I lost the reason for me living   And that just ain't no good
