Lyrics

You take the best away

You consistently take the most valuable things from me.

From me then give it all away

After taking those things, you freely give them away.

You can't control yourself

You lack self-control.

For anyone

You don't have control over yourself for anyone.

Don't think that you could ever see

You are unable to perceive that situations have changed.

That things are not the same

You're oblivious to the fact that things are different now.

You can't control yourself

Similar to line 3, you cannot restrain yourself.

For anything

You lack self-control in every situation.


Give me one reason to stop your fall (Yeah yeah yeah)

I need a single justification to prevent your decline.

Give me one reason to Answer Your call (Yeah yeah yeah)

I require a single reason to respond to your plea or request.

Give me one reason why I should care at all

I need one reason to care about you at all.


Don't think you could understand

You are incapable of comprehending.

But logic rips away

Reason and rationale strip away.

The mask that you put on

Your facade for everyone is exposed.

For everyone

The facade you wear is for everyone's benefit.

You feel it slipping from your hands

You're losing control over something important.

Still you manipulate

Despite losing control, you continue to manipulate.

You can't control yourself

Similar to lines 3 and 7, you cannot restrain yourself in any situation.

For Anything

You lack self-control in any circumstance.


Give me one reason to stop your fall (Yeah yeah yeah)

I need a reason to prevent your downfall.

Give me one reason to Answer Your call (Yeah yeah yeah)

I need a reason to respond to your call for help.

Give me one reason why I should care at all

I need a reason to care about you.


Let someone look inside at what's

Allow someone to see what you conceal behind your facade.

Behind the mask where you hide

Unveil the mixture of pain and pride that defines the real you.

A mixture of pain and pride the real

It's the genuine you that you've denied others access to.

You that's been Denied

The authentic you is a combination of pain and pride that you've kept hidden.


Won't you give me one reason? [Repeat: x 3]

Repeated plea for a reason.


Give me one reason to stop your fall (Yeah yeah yeah)

I need a justification to prevent your decline.

Give me one reason to Answer Your call (Yeah yeah yeah)

I need a reason to respond to your call for help.

Give me one reason why I should care at all

I need a reason to care about you at all.
