Giving Up - Silverstein

I used to make the light shine for you

The sun has left my sky

Velvet walls surround my sorrows

I’ve sacrificed my pride

Giving up on me (giving up on me)

You’re giving up on me (you're giving up on me)

Giving up on me (giving up on me)

You’re giving up on me

I’ve laid myself to sleep tonight

I know you’ve played out everything in your mind

And now you throw it all away

A shattered memory that you would stay

Through thick and thin with me

Giving up on me (giving up on me)

You’re giving up on me (you're giving up on me)

Giving up on me (giving up on me)

You’re giving up on me

I’ve laid myself to sleep tonight

I know you’ve played out everything in your mind

And now, and now you throw it all away

A shattered memory that you would stay

Through thick and thin with me

And when you feel the pain

I’m wishing I could stay

How can I say I love you back

You never made me happy

You’ve laid yourself to sleep!

I never said this wouldn’t hurt

You gave up everything!

I never said I’d give it back

I know!

(I know!)

You’ll never change!

I won’t be good enough for you

I know!

(I know!)

You’ll make it through

I’ll never be around to see

And now you throw it all away

A shattered memory that you would stay

Through thick and thin with me

You’re giving up on me

You’re giving up on me

You’re giving up on me

You’re giving up on me
