Lyrics"Where Does Reason End?"By Yves Stilmant © 2025 (Modern Country Ballad / Cinematic Folk / 76 BPM) Verse 1A The coffee's cold, the lights stay on We speak in sighs, then just move on The fridge hums louder than our talk We tiptoe 'round the things we've blocked Verse 1B The kids draw monsters in their rooms While bills stack up like quiet tombs She says I stare too long at walls I tell her, "No, it's nothing at all" Pre-Chorus But even silence starts to shout When reason fades and doubts move out Chorus Where does reason end... and madness begin? Is it the slam of a door, or the ache within? Is it yelling in tears or smiling too wide? Is it when we forget how to say what's inside? We used to fight, now we just pretend Tell me--where does reason end? Verse 2A I find her crying in the bath She says, "I'm fine," then tries to laugh We used to dream, now we just brace For one more storm we have to face Verse 2B I walk the yard in dead of night Try to make wrong things feel alright But the stars don't answer like they did And I miss the man I was to our kids Pre-Chorus She once said, "Love will keep us sane" Now we both flinch when we hear that name Chorus Where does reason end... and madness begin? Is it losing your way while trying to win? Is it when the truth gets buried in grace? Or seeing your partner as someone else's face? We used to break, then we'd just mend Now... where does reason end? Bridge Maybe healing ain't some light Maybe it's holding hands at night Saying "I see you" through the noise Choosing calm, not louder voice Final Chorus Where does reason end... and madness fall in? Maybe it's not the start -- but where we begin If we still care, if we still try If we still look each other in the eye Then maybe reason can find its way again Even now... even here... at the end |
