| Don't give up on me
|
| 'Cause I'm just in a rut
|
| I'm climbing but the walls
|
| Keep stacking up
|
| Can't keep my mind off of every little wrong
|
| I see the mouths are open but I can't hear the song
|
| I've done my best to fill 'em
|
| But the cracks are starting to spread
|
| Hey, I won't blame you baby
|
| Go on, turn your head
|
| But don't give up on me
|
| 'Cause I'm just in a rut
|
| I'm climbing but the walls
|
| Keep stacking up
|
| I can't keep pretending this next stop isn't mine
|
| The truth is on the table, and someone's gotta sign
|
| I've done my best defending
|
| But the punches are starting to land
|
| I'm sliding into something
|
| You won't understand
|
| Don't give up on me
|
| 'Cause I'm just in a rut
|
| I'm climbing but the walls
|
| Keep stacking up
|
| Don't give up on me
|
| 'Cause I'm just in a rut
|
| I'm climbing but the walls
|
| Keep stacking up
|
| So I'm handing you a memory
|
| I hope you understand
|
| That steadily reminds you
|
| Of who I really am
|
| This city's always breathing
|
| I wish that it would die
|
| The kickbacks and the bachelors
|
| The fever from the velvet rope
|
| The money from my mother's men
|
| I'm not like her, you're not like them
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| I'll climb and I'll climb
|
| Oh but don't you give up on me
|
| (Don't you give up, don't you give up)
|
| Don't you give up on me
|
| (Don't you give up, don't you give up)
|
| Don't you give up on me
|
| (I'll climb and I'll climb, and I'll climb and I'll climb)
|
| (Don't you give up, don't you give up)
|
| Don't you give up on me
|
| (I'll climb and I'll climb, and I'll climb and I'll climb)
|
| (Don't you give up, don't you give up)
|
| Don't give up on me
|
| I'm just in a rut |
