Give Me a Reason Lyrics

Well we change from one extreme to another
Can you help me with my shame
I didn't mean to when I kicked and punched
From nowhere this demon cameForgive me for this mindless mood
Accept this honest plea
Don't use me for the devil's food
And throw away the keyGive me a reason so I've got
Someone else to blame
Give me the reason so I've got
Something else to blameI only meant to wipe away the cries
With the softness of my hand
I didn't mean to break the tie
I'm after all a family manGive me a reason so I've got
Someone else to blame
Give me the reason so I've got
Something else to blameGive me the reason
Give me a reasonI am the master of this house
Don't try to run away

I tried the same things at your age
And I was also made to payForgive me for this mindless mood
Accept this honest plea
Don't use me for the devil's food
And throw away the keyMister patience and misses alike
Upon and throughout the land
A lot of attention
With a heap of affection
Wouldn't go astrayGive me a reason so I've got
Someone else to blame
Give me the reason so I've got
Something else to blameThis is the reason, one of the reasons
I am the reason so I've got only myself to blame
I am the reason so I've got no-one else to blame
