No Reason
Boiler Room Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Life's misfortunes always scorn us
Flesh and blood we are
Pain is certain in a world that
Has no guarantee

Whatever fate may be

I know, I know, I know
I can't find a way out in this world

Can't break your fall
And it's always something
There is no reason
Can't break that mold
Of the freaky things that happen
There is no reason
Breakin' it down
I said we're breakin' it down

When your time's up, you might die young
Live while you can
Why are we here, is the question
Can you please explain

Whatever fate may be

I know, I know, I know
I can't find a way out in this world

Can't break your fall
And it's always something
There is no reason
Can't break that mold
Of the freaky things that happen
There is no reason

I took a look inside, I told myself a lie
And still I wonder why. who's to blame
There's no forgiveness here. why must we live in fear
Who holds the cards in this unfair game?

I know, I know, I know
I can't find a way out in this world

Can't break your fall
And it's always something
There is no reason
Can't break that mold
Of the freaky things that happen
There is no reason
Breakin' it down
I said we are breakin' it down

Can't find a rhyme or reason
Can't find a rhyme or reason




There ain't no time nor a season
Can't find a rhyme or reason

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Boiler Room's song "No Reason" delve into the theme of life's uncertainties and the inevitability of pain in a world with no guarantees. The opening lines explore the idea of how life's unfortunate events always seem to befall us, and despite being flesh and blood, we are unable to avoid pain. The chorus echoes this sentiment with lines like "Can't break your fall, and it's always something," highlighting the unpredictability of life and the inability to control external variables. The song touches on the universal human question of why we are here and asks for an explanation. However, the lyrics also suggest that there may be no answer, as fate is often beyond our comprehension.


The bridge of the song takes a more introspective turn as the singer looks within themselves and admits to telling themselves lies. The lines "There's no forgiveness here, why must we live in fear, who holds the cards in this unfair game?" could potentially be interpreted as a commentary on the unjustness of life and the lack of control we have over our circumstances. The song ends with the repetition of the line "Can't find a rhyme or reason," once again emphasizing the concept of life being unpredictable and beyond comprehension.
