Don't Need a Reason
Unveiling the Hidden Messages: Beth Orton's 'Don't Need a Reason'
Lyrics
Have you ever seen a sign,
Introducing the theme of observing signs or symbols.
That upon a time,
Reflecting on a past era or period.
There were angels,
Referencing the existence of angels, symbolizing purity or divine beings.
We all lose track,
Noting the tendency to lose direction or purpose.
Was upon our backs,
Describing a burden or responsibility on one's shoulders.
Feel the weight of them,
Sensing the weight of angelic influences.
Why they fall is hard tell,
Questioning the reasons behind the fall of angels.
But some things you can buy yourself,
Acknowledging the possibility of acquiring certain things.
Yeah we all hurt the ones we love,
Recognizing the universal experience of causing pain to loved ones.
And we don't need a reason,
Emphasizing the absence of a specific reason for hurting others.
We only give what we think we deserve,
Highlighting the tendency to give based on perceived worthiness.
An' that's something to believe in,
Asserting that having something to believe in is valuable.
I think I've seen a sign,
Revisiting the theme of perceiving signs, emphasizing subtlety.
But its a very fine line,
Exploring the delicate balance when pursuing comprehensive goals.
If you want it all,
Stressing the challenge of wanting everything.
An' don't lose track,
Reiterating the risk of losing one's path.
For on our back,
Referring to the absence of burden when pursuing lofty goals.
There's no weight of wings,
Contrasting the weightlessness of aspirations with angelic wings.
When they shine is hard to say,
Acknowledging the difficulty in defining the brilliance of certain things.
But some things never fade away,
Asserting the enduring nature of some elements.
We only hurt the ones we love,
Repeating the idea of causing harm to loved ones without a specific reason.
Why we don't need a reason,
Reiterating the lack of necessity for a specific reason in causing pain.
We only give what we think we deserve,
Emphasizing the correlation between giving and perceived deservingness.
An' that's something to believe in,
Reaffirming the importance of having something to believe in.
So I've been calling angels down to Earth,
Expressing a desire for angelic influence on Earth.
An' I don't need a reason,
Stating the lack of a specific reason for calling upon angels.
Calling angels down to Earth,
Continuing the theme of invoking angelic presence due to perceived need.
Because I believe we need them,
Asserting a belief in the necessity of angels.
We only hurt the ones we love,
Restating the pattern of causing harm to loved ones without a clear reason.
Why we don't need a reason,
Reiterating the absence of a specific reason for causing pain.
Gonna get all that you deserve,
Predicting receiving what is deserved.
And all that you believe in,
Affirming the importance of beliefs in shaping one's reality.
Do you believe in,
Posing a question about belief in angels.
Do you need them,
Asking about the necessity of angels.
If you need them,
Do you know,
Posing a question about awareness.
Do you need them,
Asking about the necessity of angels.
If you need them,
Do you know,
Posing a question about awareness.
Do you need them,
Asking about the necessity of angels.
If you need them.
