Give It Up
So you take what you want Like you know what you need And you run like a train 'Til your mind doesn't strain to believe And you see what you see And it's thin as a wire And it trips you up Every time you show your naked desire Give it up, give it up Hasn't got you nowhere Live it up, live it up There's folks who love you back there And if I see Sally I'm gonna tell her you care With that nasty old habit And not even a dollar to spare 'Cause she may still wanna help you For the very last time 'Cause she knows how it works She knows you have to make up your own mind Give it up, give it up SongtexteThat limb is gonna break Give it up, give it up Just how much more can you take? Give it up, give it up You know you got to do your share Give it up, give it up Somebody loves you back there And the nights get longer You wish the day didn't come And the pounding in your head Says you're hell-bent on killing someone The pain on your face It's like a beast in control And it's feelin' like somethin's Been torn from that hole in your soul Give it up, give it up You got to do your part Give it up, give it up All you gotta do is start Give it up, give it up While there's someone to save Give it up, give it up Before we're cryin' in someone's grave Give it up, give it up Before we're cryin' in someone's grave Aus Songtexte Mania
