Chorus:
Teach us tonight, because were searching for the sun
You are the reason, though our world has come undone
Don't hide away, (don't hide baby, now don't hide baby) you are the reason we are here
We need you with us, and to guide us again with our fear
You are the reason, you are the reason, you are the reason...
Verse 1
How you gunna leave us, when we need you the most (Huh?)
How you gunna leave us, when we've gotten this close
There ain't no way you can bail, listen I know that your scared
Your scared that we'll fail, but there's people who care
And those people all love you, and deep down your aware
You just gotta face the world, double up and prepare
Cause what your doing is rare, a gift that you share
A gift that keeps on giving, trust me nothing compares
You say you must succeed, some may say that you have
Don't you throw that towel in, don't be afraid of the jabs
Just keep ya hands up, your opponent, he's rough
He's in the mirror everyday, on yourself you're too tough
Bro, you gotta look around, look where you're at
Took us straight up off of Pinedale and on to the map
We're stronger together, who are you without me
Incomplete I suppose, a lonely soul roaming free
Chorus:
Teach us tonight, because were searching for the sun
You are the reason, though our world has come undone
Don't hide away, (don't hide baby, now don't hide baby) you are the reason we are here
We need you with us, and to guide us again with our fear
You are the reason, you are the reason, you are the reason...
Verse 2:
Okay so what you gunna do, is it time to give up?
Just roll over and die? has your heart had enough?
I understand your confused, I understand you feel used
But if you leave me right now, what will happen to you?
You'll suffocate in disgust, fade away into dust
Regret every damn day, and every life that you've touched
Is that what you want? Okay go head, run and hide
In this marathon of life, Im always one step behind
I know you're insecure, cause you're not what they want
Not a product of the media, you're so nonchalant
You wanna be seen, through the eye of the public
But the publics caught up in all that magazine rubbish
So maybe you'll never be what society sees
And maybe you won't succeed in what you set to achieve
But look what you accomplished, never once pompous
Never guns and knives, you always rap conscious
Chorus:
Teach us tonight, because were searching for the sun
You are the reason, though our world has come undone
Don't hide away, (don't hide baby, now don't hide baby) you are the reason we are here
We need you with us, and to guide us again with our fear
You are the reason, you are the reason, you are the reason...
Bridge:
Looking through the eyes of love
You know the world may seem a better place
And yet, the moment that you realize
There's so much pain before your very eyes
Verse 3:
I can see through your lies, cause I can see through your eyes
Every mask that you wear, every single disguise
You can fight if you'd like, but in the end we are one
If you kill me tonight, we'll both die by the gun
See theres a reason that I'm breathing, and that reason is you
You created me from nothing, and from nothing came something
So fuck you Michael don't you dare pull the plug
Sincerely FiO Baby, don't give up on me son!
Chorus:
Teach us tonight, because were searching for the sun
You are the reason, though our world has come undone
Don't hide away, (don't hide baby, now don't hide baby) you are the reason we are here
We need you with us, and to guide us again with our fear
You are the reason, you are the reason, you are the reason...
