Givin' Up Givin' In
Pete Bellotte Lyrics

Givin' up, givin' in
Admitting defeat and surrendering

I won't be no fool again
Refusing to fall for the same tricks and deceptions again

I'm givin' up (I'm givin' up now)
Emphasizing the decision to stop trying or caring

You can sweet talk to the wind
Acknowledging the uselessness of attempts to persuade or flatter

'Cause I'm givin' up (I'm givin' up now)
Confirming the decision to surrender and move on

Too much givin', just no take
Recognizing the one-sidedness of the relationship

Guess I saw it all too late
Realizing the mistakes and missed opportunities after the fact

All those lies and alibis
Calling out the dishonesty and excuses

That you smoothed out every time
Observing the skillful manipulation and cover-ups

Givin' up, always regrettin'
Describing the pattern of regret and disappointment

Givin' up, all your deceivin'
Accusing the other party of deceit and betrayal

Givin' up, always excusing ( yeah )
Noting the tendency to make excuses and justify bad behavior

Givin' up, (there's) no more delusion
Rejecting any misguided hope or false illusion

Givin' up, allways regrettin'
Reiterating the feeling of regret and disappointment

Givin' up, no more forgivin'
Refusing to forgive or overlook past wrongs

Givin' up, too many alibis
Pointing out the excessive amount of excuses and justifications

Givin' up, all of your stupid lies
Calling out the blatant and foolish lies

I'm givin' up, I'm givin' in
Reiterating the decision to give up and surrender

'Cause this old heart ain't gonna rule my head
Refusing to let emotions and feelings cloud better judgment

Givin' in (I'm givin' up now)
Accepting the defeat and giving in to reality

My blind hate has got eyes again
Realizing the irrationality and uselessness of holding onto anger

Giving up (I'm givin' up now)
Confirming the decision to give up and let go

Givin' up, always regrettin'
Acknowledging the enduring feeling of disappointment and regret

Givin' up, no more forgivin'
Extending no mercy or forgiveness anymore

Givin' up, always believin'
Admitting to always giving the benefit of the doubt, but no longer

Givin' up, all your deceivin'
Confronting the other party's history of deceit and betrayal

Givin' up, can't you be honest once in life
Challenging the other party to be truthful and sincere

Givin' up, all of these cruel lies
Labeling the lies as harsh and hurtful

Givin' up, all of your alibis
Rejecting any excuse or justification for bad behavior

Givin' up, all of your stupid lies, yeah
Calling out the lies as foolish and unnecessary

Givin' up
Summing up the decision to give up and move on

Givin' up
Reiterating the finality of the decision to give up

Givin' up, all of your stupid lies
Continuing to point out and reject the lies
