Give It Up
Beartooth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At the pouring faith of a mindless mess
I was buried in myself
Take all your tantrum into the ground
Get out in the world my son
Your body wasn't made for this
You're gonna kill yourself
Kill yourself in the ambulance
But you forgot about me
I thought the drugs would set me free
God I‘ve been blinded in the dark
I thought you promised me a weight that I could carry
My back is breaking
I'm falling apart
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
There is a greater purpose
Your words were never worthless
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
Nothing you brought is gone
You'll never come undone
We have one chance to be alive
There's a noose around my neck
A dead body tied to my ankles
There's a sound crashing my back
And my wrists are bound in shackles
I have the underside
There's room for another life
And let the sake of sacrifice
I'm not afraid to die
Now you could finally see
I said the truth would set you free
You have been blinded in the dark
But now I'm promising a life that's worth surrounding
My back is breaking
I'm falling apart
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
There is a greater purpose
Your words were never worthless
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
Nothing you brought is gone
You'll never come undone
Will you ever understand me?
How desperate do I have to be?
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
There is a greater purpose
Your words were never worthless
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
Nothing you brought is gone
You'll never come undone
Give it up you're wasting time
Give it up you're wasting your life
Nothing you brought is gone
You'll never come undone

With all of who I am
I am giving my all
At the pouring faith of a mindless mess
Despite being in a chaotic and confusing state, I have faith
I was buried in myself
I was lost in my own problems and struggles
Take all your tantrum into the ground
Let go of your negative emotions and release them
Get out in the world my son
Go out and experience life to its fullest potential
Your body wasn't made for this
You should not abuse your body through harmful behavior
You're gonna kill yourself
Your current path is leading towards self-destruction
Kill yourself in the ambulance
Your lifestyle will eventually cause you to die in an ambulance
But you forgot about me
You ignored my presence and guidance
I thought the drugs would set me free
I believed drugs would solve my problems and provide freedom
God I‘ve been blinded in the dark
I have been lost and unable to see clearly
I thought you promised me a weight that I could carry
I believed I could handle my struggles with divine assistance
My back is breaking
I am struggling and in pain
I'm falling apart
I am losing control and experiencing a breakdown
Give it up you're wasting time
Stop your harmful behavior and make the most out of life
Give it up you're wasting your life
You are not utilizing your time and opportunities effectively
There is a greater purpose
Life is meaningful and has a purpose
Your words were never worthless
Your words have value and can make a positive impact
Nothing you brought is gone
Your past experiences and knowledge have value and can help you in the present
You'll never come undone
You will always retain your identity and experiences
We have one chance to be alive
Life is precious and we should make the most of it
There's a noose around my neck
I feel trapped and overwhelmed
A dead body tied to my ankles
I am weighed down by past events or trauma
There's a sound crashing my back
I am burdened by stress or pressure
And my wrists are bound in shackles
I feel restricted and trapped
I have the underside
I have struggled and overcome difficult obstacles
There's room for another life
There is potential for change and growth
And let the sake of sacrifice
Through sacrifice or hardship, positive change can occur
I'm not afraid to die
I am not afraid of what may come after death
Will you ever understand me?
I feel misunderstood and alone
How desperate do I have to be?
I am searching for answers and guidance, no matter the cost
