Reasons

For safety reasons it seems fine
To smile and say hello 
To anyone who's passing by 
On streets of neon glow
For deeper reasons it is good
To hear our music loud
And to reread the books we should
Know well what they’re about
For some of reasons falls a rain
To clean the road I choose
Sometimes it feels like blunted pain
To which I can’t get used
For reasons we don’t understand 
But maybe the most wise
We see the lark that still ascends
Into the depth of skies.
