Just Give Me A Reason
Pink Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You were a thief, you stole my heart
And I, your willing victim
I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty
And with every touch you fixed them
Now you've been talking in your sleep, oh oh
Things you never say to me, oh oh
Tell me that you've had enough
Of our love, our love
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second, we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again
I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine (oh, we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind (yeah, but this is happenin')
You've been havin' real bad dreams, oh oh
You used to lie so close to me, oh oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love
Oh, our love, our love (love)
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
I never stop, you're still written in the scars on my heart
You're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again
Oh, tear ducts and rust
I'll fix it for us
We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
You're holding it in
You're pouring a drink
No, nothing is as bad as it seems
We'll come clean
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second, we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second, we're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
Oh, we can learn to love again
Oh, can learn to love again
Oh, that we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
The lyrics to Pink feat. Nate Ruess's song "Just Give Me a Reason" depict a couple who are having communication issues and struggling to mend their broken relationship. The first verse illustrates the love between the couple, but also the vulnerability that comes with it as the singer allowed the other person to see her flaws. However, the second verse portrays the other person expressing doubt and fear, leading to a lack of trust in the relationship. The chorus then becomes a plea for the other person to provide a reason to keep fighting for the relationship, even just a small one. The bridge brings up the imagery of the couple's love being like something rusty that can be fixed, and urges the other person to let go of their doubts and fears in order to come clean and start anew. Overall, the song conveys the message that it's possible for the couple to learn to love again if they're both willing to put in the effort and work through their issues.

I'll fix it for us
I will work to repair our relationship
We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
We may be forgotten or abandoned, but our love is still strong
You're holding it in
You are keeping your emotions and feelings about our relationship bottled up
You're pouring a drink
You are using alcohol to try to cope with your emotions
No nothing is as bad as it seems
Things are not as dire as they appear to be
We'll come clean
We'll be honest with each other and confront our issues
Oh we can learn to love again
We have the capability to rebuild our love
Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
We may have struggled, but we are not beyond repair and can make things work again

The problem with people like me is that we care too much.
We break our hearts into pieces and give them away, until they are all gone. And we try to live with the broken hearts and broken souls we are left with. We sacrifice our own happiness to make others smile. But in the process we lose ourselves.
We extinguish the sparks in our eyes and the fire in our bellies in order to fuel the dreams of others.
We are the people who laugh at the end of every sentence and place a smiley face at the end of every text, to make sure our friends don't think we are mad when we say "I need to go." we are the people with loud thoughts and quiet voices, refusing to speak our minds at the fear of hurting another's feelings. We are the people who would give our own life to save a stranger.

"We're not broken, just bent..." This particular line really sticks out to me now. P!NK's concert was the last one that me and my ex wife seen before we were divorced. We were already separated at the time. When we were exchanging time with our son the feeling was always there. A few years later, 2016, she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. She had passed away 8 months later in 2017 1 week before her birthday after our son wanted me to ask her if she wanted to go to the aquarium with us during my vacation time with him. I thank God that she accepted. It felt like nothing even happened the whole day, we were a family unit again... "not broken, just bent"
