The Nites- No Reason Lyrics

The Nites- No Reason Lyrics

Intro (instrumental)

I need a last show, yeah I wanna see the sun

Don’t wanna let it pass, don’t wanna walk when I can run

So many times I tried, and many times been wrong

Still everytime I tell myself, don’t you dare

Sell yourself a line your nothing more

And the face you wear, theres no reason why

It’s the way things fall

In a world full of questions

Don’t have to ask them all

You Just got to let it go sometimes, sometimes

Theres no reason here, that I can find

And im done with searching

Wanna close my eyes

Just gotta let it go sometimes, sometimes

I read the wrong book, I didn’t see the signs

I took a right hook, in old classical style

I took everything they had, still look them in the eyes

And everytime I tell myself

Don’t you dare

Sell yourself a line your nothing more

And the face you wear, theres no reason why

It’s the way things fall

In a world full of questions

Don’t have to ask them all

You Just got to let it go sometimes, sometimes

Theres no reason here, that I can find

And im done with searching

Wanna close my eyes

Just gotta let it go sometimes, sometimes

Talking in circles through the night

Im trying to find that something real, and right

Im chasing your shadows everywhere

For what its worth and how it feels

Theres no reason why

It’s the way things fall

In a world full of questions

Don’t have to ask them all

You Just got to let it go sometimes, sometimes

Theres no reason here, that I can find

And im done with searching

Wanna close my eyes

You just gotta let it go sometimes, sometimes

After using Wordle to present the data of favourite music genres, I felt it would be beneficial if I put the lyrics to "No Reason" and get a visual image of the words that appear most in the song. After seeing it visually it has helped spark more ideas for narrative and themes for the music video as the reoccurring words are more easily identified.
I then printed the Wordle to annotate with word meanings and ideas for some of the words, this was easier to do when the words aren’t in context as you don’t think of the idea from what was said before it to make the lyrics link with one another so it was a good idea to collect all different ideas. The ideas/meanings I have got for the following words were:

Reason: looking for substance and the answer to his questions

Eyes: wants to see something

Wanna: his desire to discover someone/something

Gotta: his need to discover someone/something

Find: he's searching for something

Let: hes willing to change/adapt

Searching: looking for someone/something to answer his questions or enrich his life

Within our music video, we will aim to create a video with a fairly strong narrative, but also incorporate certain shots and ideas that will leave it memorable in the brain for being a little different.
