The Reason
Dr. Cover Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do what you want to
Not what you got to
Do all the time

Riding to nowhere
We really don't care
Step out of line
I just bought myself about two days
To get away
Step outside of this silent movie

Loose your mind and your gonna find
It's the easiest way
For you to justify
Try to show what you think you know

Feeling ten feet tall then

Comes the fall

Nevermind it's a test of time
If you just let go

The rules do not apply
Turn around to the beating sound
Let it take control
Once in a life time

Gimmie a reason
c reason to follow
Why we do what we do

It's just a feeling
Doesn't come in a bottle
We all have our reasons why

Take all your chances
No second glances
Keep moving on

Come to a cross road
No matter how old
Before too long

cre we all afraid to make mistakes?
Maybe it's true
Life goes on but you have to choose

Loose your mind and your gonna find
It's the easiest way
For you to justify
Try to show what you think you know

Feeling ten feet tall then

comes the fall

Nevermind it's a test of time
If you just let go
the rules do not apply
Turn around to the beating sound
Let it take control
Once in a life time

Gimmie a reason
c reason to follow
Why we do what we do

It's just a feeling
Doesn't come in a bottle
We all have our reasons ... why

... what's the point anyway

Gimmie a reason
c reason to follow
Why we do what we do

It's just a feeling




Doesn't come in a bottle
We all have our reasons why

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "The Reason" by Dr. Cover Band explore the themes of individuality, rebellion, and the pursuit of freedom. The song encourages listeners to not conform to societal expectations and instead follow their own desires. The opening lines, "Do what you want to, not what you got to, do all the time," suggest that one should prioritize personal desires rather than obligations.


The chorus emphasizes the need for a reason or motivation to justify one's actions. The line "Gimme a reason, reason to follow" implies that individuals need a purpose or justification for their choices and behaviors. The song suggests that this reason can be found by stepping outside the confines of societal expectations and embracing a sense of individualism.


The lyrics also touch upon the idea of taking risks and making choices without fear of making mistakes. The lines "Loose your mind and you're gonna find, it's the easiest way for you to justify" suggest that letting go of inhibitions and embracing one's true desires can lead to personal growth and self-justification. The song implies that it is important to make choices and take chances in life, even if they may lead to failure or disappointment.


Overall, "The Reason" encourages listeners to live authentically, make their own choices, and find their own reasons for their actions.
