lyrics
[Verse 1: Bodi]
You rise then you fall
You fly till you crawl
And you can't stand on your own two
Unless somebody holds you up
So give up
So give up
[Verse 2: Bodi]
Think of jumping overboard cause life has given no accord
Sink and slice and cut the cord and sever ties with what you stored
And you adored and move on toward the edge is just a little more
What you holding on there for the waves can take you from the shore
Say no more, let the gray overtake you
You always knew one day this would break you
What you waiting for, a thank you? Move on
No one ever cared, and no one will when you're gone
This is long overdue
Said you'd always be here, but who you trying to fool?
You can see the writing on the wall speaking tongues
How much longer can you go with those old creaking lungs?
Walk toward the sun, evaporate with the wind
Your work here is done stubborn little emo kid
The world will go on, without you, it'll be lighter
And have one less preacher to the choir
Blowing smoke from your funeral pyre
Maybe that'll finally lift some wings a little higher
The end is here to stay, maybe not what you desired
But shh…close your eyes. You look a little tired
[Verse 3: Bodi]
And what have you done?
What kind of man have you become?
What have you done?
What kind of man have you become?
And you can try to run away
But the devils that you face won't fade, yeah
You can try to run away
But they'll all catch up with you some way
You've got to make a change
You rise then you fall
You fly till you crawl
And you can't stand on your own two
Unless somebody holds you up
So give up
So give up
[Verse 2: Bodi]
Think of jumping overboard cause life has given no accord
Sink and slice and cut the cord and sever ties with what you stored
And you adored and move on toward the edge is just a little more
What you holding on there for the waves can take you from the shore
Say no more, let the gray overtake you
You always knew one day this would break you
What you waiting for, a thank you? Move on
No one ever cared, and no one will when you're gone
This is long overdue
Said you'd always be here, but who you trying to fool?
You can see the writing on the wall speaking tongues
How much longer can you go with those old creaking lungs?
Walk toward the sun, evaporate with the wind
Your work here is done stubborn little emo kid
The world will go on, without you, it'll be lighter
And have one less preacher to the choir
Blowing smoke from your funeral pyre
Maybe that'll finally lift some wings a little higher
The end is here to stay, maybe not what you desired
But shh…close your eyes. You look a little tired
[Verse 3: Bodi]
And what have you done?
What kind of man have you become?
What have you done?
What kind of man have you become?
And you can try to run away
But the devils that you face won't fade, yeah
You can try to run away
But they'll all catch up with you some way
You've got to make a change
