YOU'RE THE REASON

I tried to talk but I ended up shouting
I tried to walk but I ended up running
You reminded me of what it is to hate
I tried to calm myself but it was too late

You're the reason why my mouth tastes so bitter
You're the reason why I'm feeling down
You're the reason why I've got this jitter
The reason the world is not mine

Broken bones, unwanted memories
Paranoia on the corner of the street
I know I've been down this same old road before
Give me something to take the edge off
