Just Give Me a Reason
Pink Ft F.U.N 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
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 oh
Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
In this song, Pink sings about a relationship that has hit a rough patch. She declares that right from the start, her lover was a thief who stole her heart and she was his willing victim who showed him the not-so-pretty parts of her. She indicates that with every touch, he fixed them. However, he has been talking in his sleep and uttering things he has not said to her, causing him to want to call it quits; hence, Pink pleads with him and requests a reason to fix things. She wants them to work it out, rise again, and learn to love each other since they are not genuinely broken, just a bit bent.
The chorus represents the redemption theme of their relationship, both acknowledging the misgivings and stating that it is in the stars, written in the scars on their hearts that they can learn to love again. The lines, "tear ducts and rust, I'll fix it for us," and "we're collecting dust, but our love's enough," describe how they can overcome the struggle together. They can come clean, love again, and rise from whatever hurt and pain exists.
The song's music video shows Pink and Nate trying to be close while in separate motel rooms, with dramatic scenes of them fighting each other, ultimately resulting in a tragic ending. The song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on October 20, 2012, at number 84 and peaked at number 10. It was written by Pink, Jeff Bhasker, and Nate Ruess, with Bhasker producing it.

Right from the start
From the very beginning
You were a thief, you stole my heart
You captured my heart and I fell for you
And I your willing victim
And I let myself be taken by you
I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty
I revealed my vulnerabilities to you
And with every touch you fixed them
And every time you touched me, you healed me
Now you've been talking in your sleep oh oh
You have been talking in your sleep, revealing your true feelings
Things you never say to me oh oh
Things you keep hidden from me
Tell me that you've had enough
You want to end our relationship
Of our love, our love
Of the love we had for each other
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just give me a reason to believe that we can still make it work
Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
We're not irreparably broken, just hurt, and we can heal and love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
Our love is meant to be, and it is forever marked on our hearts
I'm sorry I don't understand
I'm sorry, but I don't comprehend why you feel this way
Where all of this is coming from
What is the source of this sudden change of heart?
I thought that we were fine (Oh we had everything)
I believed that our relationship was solid and strong
Your head is running wild again
Your mind is racing with doubts and fears once more
My dear we still have everythin'
Darling, we still have all that we need
And it's all in your mind (Yeah but this is happenin')
But all this doubt and fear is in your head
You've been havin' real bad dreams oh oh
You have been having nightmares and restless sleep
You used to lie so close to me oh oh
We used to sleep cuddled up together
There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love
Now there's just distance and emptiness between us
Oh our love, our love
Our once-great love for each other
Oh tear ducts and rust
We have cried and rusted, like a neglected machine
I'll fix it for us
But I will repair our relationship
We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
Even though time has passed, our love is still strong
You're holding it in
You're concealing your true feelings
You're pouring a drink
You're trying to drown your sorrows in alcohol
No nothing is as bad as it seems
Things aren't as terrible as they appear
We'll come clean
We will reveal our true feelings to each other
Oh we can learn to love again
We can rebuild our love from scratch
Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
We're not irreparably destroyed, just hurt, and we can heal and love again

@bored7065
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"
