The Magic Bullet Theory
Texas Is the Reason Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's all about a secret I have
Or kept or stole from you
It's all about not knowing if
I missed out on something new
You only know what I know
I never meant to keep it in the dark

I know it doesn't mean much coming from me
You want to laugh like they laugh?
Go ahead and laugh your face off, faker




Just make sure to leave me home
This is all about a secret I have
