Giving Up
They tell you to never give up
Yet when something happens to them, it's the first thing they do
They say that quitting is for losers
But if they can't succeed, they quit anyway
They say that friends are all around
Many of them are willing to turn their back on you
Giving up is wrong
But it feels so right
They say it takes a strong person to keep on fighting
I say it takes a strong person to know when to give up
Fighting when the battle is lost
Only brings more pain and heartache
So giving up isn't the problem
It's the solution
Try too hard and you fail
Everything is lost
So why continue
When giving up
Keeps you whole
