I Give Up

I try to be happy 

To smile 

To be free 

I close my eyes 

To see your face 

I wish I didn't have to 

Wake up to disappointment 

Laughing is hard 

Breathing becomes harder 

Maybe I'll never return 

To the way I was before 

Went for love 

Took a risk 

To come out worse than before 

Make no promises 

They seem to always 

Get broken 

Put my walls up 

Don't let them in 

Don't be weak 

Can't break more than 

I already have 

I try 

Try 

Try 

I just can't anymore 

I'm done 

I give up
