But I do it anyway
And I can't see why
For what I got in store
You reap what you sew
Oh, so the poets say
While raised to think knowledge is power
While we're brave enough to care
And she wanted to spend some time
Attempting some connection
And it's bad, and it's good
And eventually slows
Oh, so the poets say
'Cause here I go when the hat drops
I just wanted to make her mine
You reap what you sew
Does it matter if we should
You reap what you sew
And oh, the sirens how they wail
I've come to learn it ain't
But I do it anyway
So there we are just standing there
And I can't see why
And this time there's no illusion
In the lions mouth for more
And it comes, and it goes
And I can't see why
And we lie, and we trade
But I do it anyway
And we try, and we fail
And I can't see why
But I do it anyway
Oh, so the poets say
You reap what you sew
And she looked soft to touch so it's the same you see
Trying to figure out why we're there
And I guess destiny is made
Well, she knew my name and she came to me
