• I gave up on love a long, lost time ago.
    I guess, I didn't give up on heartache.
    In the time it takes to move my hand
    Across my eyes, it was enough for me
    To feel it break.

    I concede too too much in life. I concede much too much in life.

    A rhythm started to roll my hips,
    And chords moved my limbs in time.
    I moved through the crowd, eyes feasting
    On all I couldn't have.
    'Cause I knew I could feast on
    What was mine.

    Your shadow caused my heart to dip,
    And doubts froze my limbs in time.
    I'd wax on topics for hours,
    To have just a minute in your mind.
    I could stand, spewing bright green flames
    And reciting grand lullabies.
    But to me you're deaf and blind.

    I gave up on love a long, long time ago.
    Heartache didn't give up on me.
    In the time it takes to wipe the tears
    From my eyes, it was just enough
    To feel it break.

    I concede too too much in life. I concede much too much in life.

    True happiness seems like a sham.
    The closer I get to success,
    The more cold and more lonely I am.
    At one point, you're just fighting to succeed.
    Happiness is a fringe and success is a need.
    But more than life or death or even passing a test,
    I just need to ********' rest.

    True happiness seems like a sham.
    The closer I get to her,
    The more cold and lonely I am.
    Right now, I'm just fighting to compete.
    Love is a fringe, and attention is a dying need.
    But more than life or death, or even having sex,
    I just need to feel complete.

    Maybe I just need some sleep.

    I gave up on love a long, lost time ago.
    I guess, heartache didn't give up on me.
    In the time it takes to move my hand
    to draw the curtains down, it was enough
    To feel it break.

    I concede much too much in life. I concede too too much in life.
