I tried so long to change
The person I’d become
I tried so hard to feel
Anybody’s love

But life was never fair
And there was nothing to be found
I never wanted to be the one
who let You down

I’m giving up now
So take this life
Take it from these troubled hands and make it right
Because I’m getting out
While I still have time
You don’t know what it’s like to be lost without a light
I’m giving up now

Somehow it’s not the same
To be stuck down in between
The foolish choices that I’ve made
And all I’ve seen

I want to get away
So I can finally breathe
I know I’m leaving them behind
But I know I have to leave

I’m giving up now
So take this life
Take it from these troubled hands and make it right
Because I’m getting out
While I still have time
You don’t know what it’s like to be lost without a light
I’m giving up now

I told You that I wasn’t strong enough
Can’t You see I’m not that tough…
Father, I am giving up
