Archived Demo – Give Up

I wrote this song about….. exactly a year ago. To the hour, I think. Noooope. Just looked it up. I’m one day early. It’s fine. This is a demo that I made and then proceeded to update and re-record on June 1st. Please Enjoy. (My voice got tired at the end. I’ve been trying not to write like this as much anymore.)

Everyone is getting started but they can’t see
Everyone is so absorbed now, so selfishly
I don’t even know what happened when you left
Everything it turned to darkness heaven bent

And you know how older stories tend to run
Everyone there is still hiding from everyone
In the morning I’ll look skyward and wonder why
Everything had to go this way when you said goodbye

You just can’t give up anymore
You just can’t give up close that door
You just can’t give up can’t you see
You just can’t give up so recklessly

The mood dampens everything you know
Everyone they’ve gone their own ways and left you alone
Sick and tired of everything always going wrong
Wish you’d take the easy way out you’d be long gone

You just can’t give up anymore
You just can’t give up close that door
You just can’t give up can’t you see
You just can’t give up so recklessly
You just can’t give up anymore
You just can’t give up hold that thought
You just can’t give up I’m not through with you
You just can’t give up no matter what you do
