Don't give up on me
'Cause I'm just in a rut
I'm climbing but the walls
Keep stacking upCan't keep my mind off of every little wrong
I see the mouths are open but I can't hear the song
I've done my best to fill 'em
But the cracks are starting to spread
Hey, I won't blame you baby
Go on, turn your headBut don't give up on me
'Cause I'm just in a rut
I'm climbing but the walls
Keep stacking up
I can't keep pretending this next stop isn't mine
The truth is on the table, and someone's gotta sign
I've done my best defending
But the punches are starting to land
I'm sliding into something
You won't understandDon't give up on me
'Cause I'm just in a rut
I'm climbing but the walls
Keep stacking upDon't give up on me
'Cause I'm just in a rut
I'm climbing but the walls
Keep stacking up
So I'm handing you a memory
I hope you understand
That steadily reminds you
Of who I really am
This city's always breathing
I wish that it would die
The kickbacks and the bachelors
The fever from the velvet rope
The money from my mother's men
I'm not like her, you're not like themI'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climb
I'll climb and I'll climbOh but don't you give up on me
(Don't you give up, don't you give up)
Don't you give up on me
(Don't you give up, don't you give up)
Don't you give up on me
(I'll climb and I'll climb, and I'll climb and I'll climb)
(Don't you give up, don't you give up)
Don't you give up on me
(I'll climb and I'll climb, and I'll climb and I'll climb)
(Don't you give up, don't you give up)Don't give up on me
I'm just in a rut
