Sweetie Pie - Give Up lyrics

{Verse} In a little while, she will call you back And what you thought you had before, will fade to black But still, she'll tell you things, to make you believe That this fu*ked up world, is yours to seize So you seize every day {Chorus} And each time you close your eyes to sleep You dream yourself an amputee Each time you close your eyes to sleep You watch your core retreat {Verse} When she takes a breath, and her bosom grows And your blood flows hard, 'til you lose control And it throbs and burns like a fever, that you can never cool You both play the game. But, she makes the rules And she can break them, too {Chorus} And each time you close your eyes to sleep You dream yourself an amputee Each time you close your eyes to sleep You watch your core retreat {Verse} In a little while, she will bare her teeth And she'll crown your head with a thorny wreath And she'll call it "grace." Then she'll bend you, she'll break you She knows how to make you return every time Cause she's put all her faith in you losing your mind 'til it's hers to manipulate Realize, you're just the bait {Outro} And give up! Give up 'Cause what you threw away wasn't yours to lose Give up (pretending you're okay) Give up (searching for lives to save) 'Cause what you threw away wasn't yours to lose (All of your roads are paved in tar And there's not a star in your sky) Give up (She's breaking you down in her bile) Give up (Confusing her fangs for a smile) 'Cause what you threw away wasn't yours to lose (And she bites, and she chews, and she spits) And you lose Give up Give up 'Cause what you threw away wasn't yours to lose Not yours to lose
