All around me I see people with smiles on their face, when I try I die and I just can’t keep the pace.
Standing here alone just like any other day, when I motivate to move, no groove I guess this is just the way.
Screaming out at a world that never seemed to want me, all I want is love, but I shove that down because I am never seen.
Even these words are useless phrases that cannot change, I cried, I applied, but I can’t seem to find the range.
Give me a reason, to keep on going on,
Give me one reason, tired of being strong.
Give me a reason to stay here, it doesn’t seem much to ask,
Give me reason to live…give me reason to forgive…me…in tears.
And for all those years, I am sick of staying here, just give me one reason.
You see I see you all move along in life, not meant for me, I freeze, every surprising moment made of strife.
I see you walk along and hold your lover, I’m no contact, and then I react, cause I have no other.
Still, I am not sure what I want to do, should I go, I know, It was never a feeling I wanted to view.
However at this time, I have nothing to show, I pleaded, I needed, and now at times I think if this is all there is I’d much rather go.
Give me a reason, to keep on going on,
Give me one reason, tired of being strong.
Give me a reason to stay here, it doesn’t seem much to ask,
Give me reason to live…give me reason to forgive…me…in tears.
And for all those years, I am sick of staying here, just give me one reason.
What has always made me so strange, that I could never fit in these shoes?
What could I have done better for me to ever be the one they chose?
How can I believe I can change anything around this circle I go?
And all the things I once saw in me, the world will never know, please tell me so…
Give me a reason, to keep on going on,
Give me one reason, tired of being strong.
Give me a reason to stay here, it doesn’t seem much to ask,
Give me reason to live…give me reason to forgive…me…in tears.
And for all those years, I am sick of staying here, just give me one reason.
Now as I write these words out here, I end, I trend, and is it all really that clear?
I see a man who was never loved and never taken, but I’m real, I feel, so why am I not wanted and forsaken?
How can one be alone in world of a billion souls, I weep, thoughts creep, and here we are still in the same childhood hole.
So please…
Give me a reason, to keep on going on,
Give me one reason, tired of being strong.
Give me a reason to stay here, it doesn’t seem much to ask,
Give me reason to live…give me reason to forgive…me…in tears.
And for all those years, I am sick of staying here, just give me one reason.
