Giving Up
Sure I've got bad habits
When I'm anxious, when I'm lonely
When I'm anything but perfectly content
Crying in the cabin
Of that coke can of an airplane
I've been pounding, desperate just to make a dent
Then you pick me up in your Civic
And you show me life- I wanna live it
Kiss me darling, melt me
A twisted sinner, help me
Trust me when I say I'm giving up
Quick and fake perfection
For death and resurrection
Falling like a fool on into love
I'm giving up
I never did enough
No more depending on impressions
No more practicing in privacy and pride
No more simulating stuff
It's combat, crisis, and depression
No more beating air with no one by my side
Place your hand in mine when doubt seizes
Gaping wounded wide eyed at Jesus
Kiss me darling, melt me
A twisted sinner, help me
Trust me when I say I'm giving up
Quick and fake perfection
For death and resurrection
Falling like a fool on into love
I'm giving up
Ooh
Ooh
When living for love means giving it up
Kiss me darling, melt me
A twisted sinner, help me
Trust me when I say I'm giving up
Quick and fake perfection
For death and resurrection
Falling like a fool on into love
I'm giving up
When I'm anxious, when I'm lonely
When I'm anything but perfectly content
Crying in the cabin
Of that coke can of an airplane
I've been pounding, desperate just to make a dent
Then you pick me up in your Civic
And you show me life- I wanna live it
Kiss me darling, melt me
A twisted sinner, help me
Trust me when I say I'm giving up
Quick and fake perfection
For death and resurrection
Falling like a fool on into love
I'm giving up
I never did enough
No more depending on impressions
No more practicing in privacy and pride
No more simulating stuff
It's combat, crisis, and depression
No more beating air with no one by my side
Place your hand in mine when doubt seizes
Gaping wounded wide eyed at Jesus
Kiss me darling, melt me
A twisted sinner, help me
Trust me when I say I'm giving up
Quick and fake perfection
For death and resurrection
Falling like a fool on into love
I'm giving up
Ooh
Ooh
When living for love means giving it up
Kiss me darling, melt me
A twisted sinner, help me
Trust me when I say I'm giving up
Quick and fake perfection
For death and resurrection
Falling like a fool on into love
I'm giving up
