Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was just burning days
Glare on the ceiling fan
Counting the cracks in the paint
Like they had some kind of plan
Coffee gone cold on the table
My name like a rumor in my head
Telling myself
"stay able"
But I felt half-alive instead
[Chorus]
If I had to have a reason to live
I want you to be the reason why
The reason my heart beats in my chest
The reason I don’t freeze inside
If I’ve gotta hang on by a thread
Let it tie me back to you again
If I had to have a reason to live
You’re the reason I’m not alone again (hey!)
[Verse 2]
You kicked in the door of my silence
Boots on my brittle pride
Laughed at the ghosts in my closet
Said
"they don’t get to drive"
Now every cheap bar
Street sign
Late night
Feels like a place we claimed
You wrote your number on my wrist
Where I used to hide my shame
[Chorus]
If I had to have a reason to live
I want you to be the reason why
The reason my heart beats in my chest
The reason I don’t flatline
If I’ve gotta hang on by a thread
Let it tangle us
Skin to skin
If I had to have a reason to live
You’re the reason I’m not alone again (oh yeah)
[Bridge]
I don’t need a grand design
Just your name pressed to mine
When the world feels too loud
Too loud
You’re the quiet in the crowd
[Chorus]
If I had to have a reason to live
I want you to be the reason why
The reason my heart beats in my chest
The reason I still survive
If I’ve gotta hang on by a thread
Let it pull me back to you again
If I had to have a reason to live
You’re the reason I’m not alone again
You’re the reason I’m not alone again (hey!)
You’re the reason my heart beats again
