All Gived Up

Well ain't it funny how a man can be summed up in seconds
Looking into his eyes and you've revealed his intentions
And I wonder why it is that a quick glance of impression
Conceals all the good and even potential
Ain't it a shit to know that kindness
Is never gentleness
Unless it's from your mother and that of your father
I guess

I've given up on love
I've given up on life
And I ain't gonna change
Because I'ven given up on tryin'

Yeah
Well ain't good to know that time
Can heal all the hurting
A little break away is like a big old stage curtain
And I wonder why it is
No matter what people tell you
You gotta do things yourself to find any value

I ain't gonna wait
I ain't gonna fight
I'll just make sure
That I don't screw up this time

I've given up on faith
I've given up on cryin'
And I'll hold on to change
'Cause all we've got is tryin'

Yeah
