I see you turn your back on the wagons
It's so hard to be saved
You say you’re done, but your word is an empty cage
I pray you'll see the day

You get by, escape by the pouring rain
Before a time you were safe
But when the sun illuminates your face
Will you see or will you change?

You play it safe, you hide in your escape
And it won't get better, no it don’t get better

Sometimes I think you might be better off
Living right, living like they want
But I know too well, this pain, your hell
So I don't, I don't speak when I know I won't be heard
So I sing

You see the stars, and you know who you are
If you could just hold on to what you've got
You'll make it to the top, don't go giving up
Don't go giving up
Don’t go giving up
Don’t go giving up
Don't go giving up
I see you turn your back on the wagons
(Don’t give it up)
It's so hard to be saved
(Don't give it up)
You say you're done, but your word is an empty cage
(Don’t give it up)
I pray you'll see the day
(Don't go giving up)
