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
