Giving Up Lyrics
the sun has left my sky
velvet walls surround my sorrows
i've sacrificed my pride
you're giving up on me (giving up on me)
giving up on me (giving up on me)
you're giving up on me
i know you've played out everything in your mind
and now you throw it all away
a shattered memory that you would stay
through thick and thin with me
you're giving up on ...
you're giving up on me (giving up on me)
giving up on me (giving up on me)
you're giving up on me
i know you've played out everything in your mind
and now you throw it all away
a shattered memory that you would stay
through thick and thin with me ...
i'm wishing i could stay
how can i say i love you back?
you never made me happy
i never said this wouldn't hurt
you gave up everything
i never said i'd give it back
i know you'll never change
i wont be good enough for you
i know you'll make it through
i'll never be around to see
a shattered memory that you would stay
through thick and thin with me
you're giving up on me
you're giving up on me
you're giving up on me
you're giving up on me

if its about god, and they were indeed a christian band then why would he be saying things like "you never made me happy?" or "i used to make the light shine for you" to god? shane and the rest of the guys may be christians but there music def does not portray any relligious messages.

I just (in the past fifteen minutes) lost my best friend/girlfriend in one fell swoop, and the first half of the song speaks to me like you wouldn't believe. Stuff used to be so good between us, but I fucked up, so she is done. If there is one thing that anyone and everyone that reads this learns today, learn to appreciate people and never take anything for granted, because as soon as you have, you've lost it.

holy ass,,no ones posted up nada for this song,,,wow,, this song so great,,how shane lets all his emotion out a tthe end of this song,,this song is about a relationship going back and shes just basically giving up on him but in the process shit was never as great to began with,,and she just doesnt basically want to fix it all..the video pretty corny,,this song needs more post!

I agree, this song is great. How can anyone not get goosebumps when he sings " How can I say i love you back? You never made me happy"? Ummm, one more thing. I don't think this song is about a girl, I think it might be about GOD...they are a Christian Band.

How is this about God?...I think it's about a chick too.
