• You know, there's gotta be something to say
    About those people who just throw it all away.
    Its hard to imagine a good reason for that
    For pissing away the rest of the day.

    How do you get in the mind of a murderous child?
    A kid with a blank slate now handcuffed and filed.
    It's hard to imagine a good reason for that
    For throwing your life away.

    Then there's the men who stalk, rape and beat
    The women they fixate on and who they wanted to meet
    It's hard to imagine a good reason for that
    How did it turn out this way?

    I need an explanation on why a parent thinks its all right
    To beat a child until they have no more will to fight.
    It's hard to imagine a good reason for that
    Tell me, how did that become okay?

    Right now, there's a drunk passed out and kissing the pavement
    His face buried in puke and I'm not sure if he'll make it
    It's hard to imagine a good reason for that
    When he wakes up, I wonder what he'll say.

    And when your little girl's cutting with thoughts of dying
    Because at school she can't handle all the hate and lying
    It's hard to imagine a good reason for that.
    A life lost for what you thought was play.

    So, please, when life has put you hard through the ringer
    A word could save you, or a song, if you're considered a singer
    It's hard to imagine a good reason for things not to change
    'Cause if it won't, your life is what you're going to pay.
