"Give Up" lyrics

"Give Up"

What use are my lungs if I'm barely breathing?
What use is this heart if it's barely beating?

I'm wishing this was all just a fucked up dream
I'm searching for peace
I want to sleep for eternity

We've buried our tracks
I've walked this path on broken glass
I've waited for this moment and there's no turning back

Wasting a lifetime making all of the wrong choices
Speaking up only strikes fear into the voiceless

(Pace.)
I buried my soul
(Breath.)
Without a coffin so it
(Collect.)
Could still seize an opportunity

(Must)
To break free from the
(Resist)
Claws of reality
And the obstacles in my way
(Death.)

(Erase.)
But the past won't let me
No, they won't let me go
(Repeat.)
The world has different plans
I can't do this on my own

(Emotions)
I need somebody to lean on
When time starts to stand still
I'm starting to learn I'm only human
(Flee.)
And it's okay not to know what to do

What use are my lungs if I'm barely breathing?
I saw the look on your face but looks can be deceiving
What use is this heart if it's barely beating?
I'll never be more than this and you know I can't resist the pain
