Giving Up On You Lyrics
Silent and quiet
Again in my life
Far from these moments, I wish I was
Passion and truth
We were about
Before the shadows stole the beat of our hearts
After all we have been through
I can only look at you
Through the eyes you lied to
I'm givin' up, givin' up
I'm givin' up on you
After all if there is no way out
If you cannot stand beside me
If there isn't love there is only pride
I'm givin' up, I'm givin' up this fight
Undo this leash
You say I tied
When only our fears are to blame this time
And what am I to you
Just spit it out
I'm not afraid of the words that you hide
Chorus
Where do we go
When did it all crash
When did it start to fall apart
Silence and quiet
Passion, the truth
I wish I was, I wish I was
Again in my life
Far from these moments, I wish I was
We were about
Before the shadows stole the beat of our hearts
I can only look at you
Through the eyes you lied to
I'm givin' up, givin' up
I'm givin' up on you
After all if there is no way out
If you cannot stand beside me
If there isn't love there is only pride
I'm givin' up, I'm givin' up this fight
You say I tied
When only our fears are to blame this time
And what am I to you
Just spit it out
I'm not afraid of the words that you hide
When did it all crash
When did it start to fall apart
Passion, the truth
I wish I was, I wish I was

One of my favourite songs.
I think it's about being lied to, and having to let go after a long time. Letting go is a hard thing to do, but it has to be done.

the song is obvious about what it means (plus it was including in Dawson's Creek i think). But it's a pretty, laidback song about breaking up.

This is one of my favorite songs on that album. I can really see myself saying that to someone I know.
