"Gave It Up" lyrics

LECADE & Eddie And The Getaway Lyrics

"Gave It Up"

There's a bottle on the counter
In a trailer past the county line in Mississippi (In Mississippi)
And it's calling my name like I'm calling out yours
There's a bible on the shelf that's saying hell is where I'm headed
After all this whiskey (After all this whiskey)
But hell, it's the only thing that works

No, I don't give a damn, I've been drinkin' and drivin' (Drinkin' and drivin')
Smoking in bed 'til it feels like I'm flying (Feels like I'm flying)
I'm burning it down, I don't care if it kills me
As long as it kills that memory of us
Well, I gave it all, all the air in my lungs
All the blood in my veins but it wasn't enough
So don't you dare come back 'round here saying we ain't done
'Cause I gave you everything and you gave it up
(Yeah, you gave it up)
And you gave it up
(I gave you everything)

And there's a 40 on the nightstand
And a quarter in my right hand
What's it gonna be? (What's it gonna be?)
Heads I stay or tails I leave (Tails I leave)
Damn, I'm tired of being tired all the time
My life's on fire
Let it burn, let it burn

No, I don't give a damn, I'm drinkin' and drivin' (Drinkin' and drivin')
I smoke in my bed 'til it feels like I'm flying (Feels like I'm flying)
I'm burning it down, don't care if it kills me
As long as it kills that memory of us
I gave it all, all the air in my lungs
All the blood in my veins but it wasn't enough
So don't you dare come back 'round here saying we ain't done
'Cause I gave you everything and you gave it up
And you gave it up

I might just overdose on this old backroad
Cover up my tire tracks so nobody knows
Yeah, this pain I feel, it's getting way too real
I'm tryin' to find an answer I've been looking for in a pill

I don't give a damn, I'm drinkin' and drivin' (Drinkin' and drivin')
I smoke in my bed 'til it feels like I'm flying (Feels like I'm flying)
I'm burning it down, I don't care if it kills me
As long as it kills that memory of us
I gave it all, all the air in my lungs
All the blood in my veins but it wasn't enough (It wasn't enough)
So don't you dare come back 'round here saying we ain't done
'Cause I gave you everything and you gave it up
(Yeah, you gave it up)
And you gave it up
(I gave you everything and you gave it up)
