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
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
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 we can learn to love again
Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
The song "Just Give Me A Reason" by P!nk and Nate Ruess is a powerful ballad about a couple trying to reconcile after facing the harsh reality of their strained relationship. It talks about the ups and downs of a relationship, including the moments of vulnerability and intimacy shared between the two. The lyrics convey a sense of honesty and sincerity, as well as a deep desire to make things work.
The opening lines of the song, "Right from the start, you were a thief, you stole my heart" indicate that the couple had an intense chemistry from the beginning. However, throughout the song, we also see the couple struggling to hold on to the love they once shared. The lines "And it's all in your mind (yeah, but this is happenin') / You've been havin' real bad dreams" highlight the fear and anxiety that comes with being in a relationship, and how these feelings can manifest themselves in our dreams.
The chorus of the song, "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" captures the essence of the song. It is a plea for understanding and forgiveness, and a reminder that love can be repaired if both parties are willing to work at it. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the line "Oh we can learn to love again" reminding us that love is never truly lost and can always be rekindled.
Line by Line Meaning
Right from the start You were a thief, you stole my heart
You took my heart without permission, from the moment I met you
And I, your willing victim
I was glad to have been stolen, to have fallen in love with you
I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty
I showed you my flaws, my ugliness, my imperfections, my weaknesses
And with every touch you fixed them
But with every touch of yours, you healed me, mended me, and made me stronger
Now you've been talking in your sleep oh oh Things you never say to me oh oh
But now you're talking in your sleep, revealing what you keep hidden from me
Tell me that you've had enough Of our love, our love
And that you've given up on our love, on us
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Please give me a valid excuse, even a small one would suffice
Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
We're not completely ruined, just a little bruised, and we can fall in love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
It's our destiny, forever etched in the marks of love and pain on our hearts
I'm sorry I don't understand Where all of this is coming from
I'm trying to comprehend the reasons behind your sudden change of heart
Your head is running wild again My dear we still have everything
You're overthinking things again, my love, we still have it all
And it's all in your mind (yeah but this is happenin')
But it's all in your head, you're making yourself believe it's real
There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love Oh our love, our love
Our love has turned into lifeless sheets, devoid of passion and warmth
Oh tear ducts and rust I'll fix it for us We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
Despite the tears and damages we've been through, I'm willing to fix it, clean it up, and salvage what's left of us
You're holding it in You're pouring a drink No nothing is as bad as it seems We'll come clean
You're bottling up your emotions, trying to numb the pain with alcohol, but nothing is as hopeless as it looks. We'll be honest with each other
Oh we can learn to love again
We can teach ourselves to love again
Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
We're not shattered, we're not hopeless, we're just slightly damaged, and we can teach ourselves to love 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"
