Don't Give Up

If you didn't do what you wanted to
If you only did what everybody told you
Who would you be?
You will always try
You will always fly
You will always look a tiger in the eye
Take it from me

I see it in your eyes, there's a movie of dreams
See there is more to you, than it first seems
See you are brighter than all the moonbeams
You know

For you light up the darkness you glow
Don't give up
Don't give in
Don't let go

If you never say what you wanted to say
If you only do it everybody else's way
Who would you be?
If you never shout
If you never doubt
If you never rock a boat until we all fall out
Do it for me

For when you are quiet, it troubles my mind
Though life is sometimes bitter as a lemon rind
You have a voice that is one of a kind
You know

Oh, you light up the darkness, you glow
Don't give up
Don't give in
Don't let go

When it seems so much easier just to fall
You're back to the wall
Sick of it all
That's when I call you to battle

If you didn't fight
If you didn't bite
If you didn't wrestle demands and the death of Nile
Who would you be? (Who would you be?)

If you didn't sing, yes you didn't sting
Never pulled a feather from an angel's wing
Do it for me (do for me)
For you're not the victim
The hero, you're safe
Not quite the model of how to behave
But you're the ones they will ride on your grave
You know

Oh, you light up the darkness, you glow
Don't give up
Don't give in
Don't let go
