I feel so cool, I feel lucky inside
I feel like my worst enemies died
The poison of the streets has crept inside my lungs
And the blood is throbbing inside my tongue

And I think that I know the reason why
And I think that I know the reason why
And I know, and I know, and I know the reason why
And I think that I know the reason why

Blood is dripping from the heart
On a picture of Jesus that I've got
Goodwill drips from everyone's eyes
Gosh, I feel so lucky inside

And I think that I know the reason why
And I think that I know the reason why
And I know, and I know, and I know the reason why
And I think that I know the reason why

Thorn-ripped skull and blazing sand
I'm on a night beach, I just washed up on land
Big jet plane flying overhead
Inside, I feel like I'm no longer dead

And I think that I know the reason why
And I think that I know the reason why
And I know, and I know, and I know the reason why
And I think that I know the reason why
