I give up on the truth;
It only hurts the people around you.
I give up on the lies;
They are the reason the truth hurts.
I give up on the dreams;
They don't come true,
And it hurts when they're crushed.
I give up on the wishes and fantasies;
They allowed me to dream too much.

I give up on the love;
I know I don't deserve it,
I don't understand what love is,
No one does.
I give up on the words;
I don't know how to us them,
No one does.

I give up on my voice;
No one listens to it.
I give up on the writing;
People say I don't do it right.
I give up on the music;
I don't know how to sing,
How to write songs,
Or how to dance.
I give up on half of my family;

Only because they left me.
I give up on friends;
They don't understand me.
I give up on myself;
I fail at everything I do.
I give up on everything and everyone that ever gave up on me first.

Even though I gave up;
But you shouldn't!
Don't follow me..
I ran into walls and gave up..
Be true to yourself and to your heart,
Because then you'll never be lead a stray.
