Give Me a Reason

Madness

 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 came

 Forgive me for this mindless mood
 Accept this honest plea
 Don't use me for the devil's food
 And throw away the key

 Give me a reason so I've got
 Someone else to blame
 Give me the reason so I've got
 Something else to blame

 I 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 man

 Give me a reason so I've got
 Someone else to blame
 Give me the reason so I've got
 Something else to blame

 Give me the reason
 Give me a reason

 I 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 pay

 Forgive me for this mindless mood
 Accept this honest plea
 Don't use me for the devil's food
 And throw away the key

 Mister patience and Misses alike
 Upon and throughout the land
 A lot of attention
 With a heap of affection
 Wouldn't go astray

 Give me a reason so I've got
 Someone else to blame
 Give me the reason so I've got
 Something else to blame

 This 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
