I Won't Give up the Things I Love
I put the cart before the horse
counted diamonds in the dark
serenaded painted ladies
silver bullets in my gun.
Drank the wine swore I'd resist
sweat through dreams of scarlet lips
survived extraordinary circumstances.
The Devil cracked a grin.
Why can't we live for one another?
Why don't we hold each other up?
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
When this world grows dark and cold
and I ain't got nowhere to go
I won't give up the things I love.
Learned defeat without regrets
saw people bleed and not get wet
caught a reflection of my former self
beneath this mask I wear.
Tried forgiveness and I failed
raised up my voice and screamed out loud,
confronted all the truth I ever knew then tried to run like hell.
Why can't we live for one another?
Why don't we hold each other up?
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
When this world grows dark and cold
and I ain't got nowhere to go
I won't give up the things I love.
Hold me up, I think I'm falling
I'm afraid to see the morning
oh the light, oh the light is awful bright.
Hold me up, I think I'm falling
I'm afraid to see the morning
oh the light, oh the light is awful bright
oh the light, oh the light is awful bright.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
When this world grows dark and cold
and I ain't got nowhere to go
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
No, I won't give up the things I love.
Yeah, I won't give up the things I love.
I won't give up the things I love.
