about

This song is one of the first I recorded after I lost half my hearing.

lyrics

Is it giving up or giving in
Or have you given in to giving up
Or are we sticking to the things we said we would

Are you growing up, or giving up
Getting paid but feeling stuck
well we’ve only got one life to live

Are you rushing in or rushing out
Is it everything you hoped it would be with him
Or have you given up on what you truly wanted

We’ve all given up and given in
The trick is that we never quite stopped with it
And giving up on giving up is sometimes done

Is it growing up? Are you giving in? or have you given up?
On the life you’d hoped you’d live. 2x

Growing up, is giving in
Following the cash to a life of sin
When, we were so much lighter in the forest

we’re falling fast, landing hard
Laid bare at the side of the bar
as all our friends cry and drink up for us

our Stomachs stuffed, pockets full
Jewelry and clothing bought with gold
But still these hearts will still refuse their beatings

We’re all left behind, with broken bones
For reasons that remain unknown but
There’s a certain comfort amongst these corpses

Getting up, and moving on
Back from the dead, its been way too long and
I can barely move my toes and

Lazarus, rise and walk
Pick up your shit, and stand up tall
Theres more for dead men who can talk
