Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lost my heart and lost my soul
Now it's the time that you won't know
Lost my mind and lost my goal
Mm, not giving in
I'm not giving in
Not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
Waste my time which makes things worse
Lost in mine, my love is cursed, mm
Time to make these things feel right
Mm, let's start this show for one last time
Oh, I'm not giving in
Ooh (not giving in) not giving in, oh yeah
Let me tell you no, not giving in
Not this time (not giving in)
Not gonna give it in, woo
This time I'm gonna be stronger, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
No, not giving in
Not giving in (this time I'm gonna be stronger, I'm not giving in)
I'm gonna be stronger (this time I'm gonna be stronger, I'm not giving in)
I'm gonna be stronger
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
(I'm gonna be stronger) this time, I'm gonna be stronger, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, no, I'm not giving in
This time I'm gonna be stronger, I'm not giving in
