Maximo Park - The Reason I Am Here Lyrics

We will have to make a journey
Through the eyes of idiots
Where every problem in the country
Is blamed upon the immigrants

Not exactly high society
Neither tack nor sobriety

The people who never doubt
Are the ones I'm worried about
The people who never doubt
Are the ones who carry the clout

Not exactly high society
Neither tack nor sobriety
Way they behave, how they lie
Whereas I look for balance to strike

Let's seize the day
Don't generate antipathy
Obsessing over history
I try to lean but something keeps on stopping me
I think may be dignity

Stay home with me
You are the reason I am here
Stay home with me
You are the reason I am here

Now is the time
For opening your mind
Now is the time
For opening your mind

Let's seize the day
Don't generate antipathy
Obsessing over history
I try to lean but something keeps on stopping me
I think may be dignity

Stay home with me
You are the reason I am here
Don't deny your pride
There's nothing wrong with difference
If better than maleficence
Stay home with me
You are the reason I am here
Stay home with me
You are the reason I am here
