There is no way to run away There is nothing to stop the decay Just go weak and let the tears fall to the floor Nothing to hide or hold in anymore I just need more time But my hope is smaller than a dime This kind of life is painful But everyone says to be grateful But what can we be grateful for? Shattered hearts and broken dreams People coming apart at the seams Beaten until we're black and blue Killing the things that could have grew Killing love, killing innocent kids Killing hope, burning eyelids Killing faith and ourselves A million reasons to hate the world we live in Seven billion people full of laughter and tears Full of taken years Kick the bucket and thank yourself for the win We **** everything and leave nothing...

A Million Reasons
There is no way to run away There is nothing to stop the decay Just go weak and let the tears fall to the floor Nothing to hide or hold in anymore I just need more time But my hope is smaller than a dime This kind of life is painful But everyone says to be grateful But what can we be grateful for? Shattered hearts and broken dreams People coming apart at the seams Beaten until we're black and blue Killing the things that could have grew Killing love, killing innocent kids Killing hope, burning eyelids Killing faith and ourselves A million reasons to hate the world we live in Seven billion people full of laughter and tears Full of taken years Kick the bucket and thank yourself for the win We **** everything and leave nothing...
