(If you have kids, and you say: 
"Okay Johnny, you know, 
you're going to be in charge of loading the dishwasher - 
Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
Taking out the garbage - Tuesday, Thursday."
But Johnny does not do that.
When you are doing him a disservice,
by allowing him to have these privileges...)

I do it on a whim
It's rhyme without reason
Whatever comes to mind 
I'll pull it from thin air 
I've learned to improvise to fill my time 
I don't want to live this life 
No, I don't want to live this life without reason. 

Never want to live without it
Never want to live
I don't want to live without reason

I do it on a whim 
With no motivation 
Following this line and I don't know why
But I've learned to capture time 
It's my redirection 
I don't want to live this life
No, I don't want to live this life without reason 

Never want to live without it
Never want to live
I don't want to live without reason

You want to work, to spend, to show
You want to talk, to smile, to feel
You want to run, to thirst, to drink
You want to love, to know it's real

Never want to live without
Never want to live
I don't want to live without reason
