Even I Lyrics

I don't want to notice,
I don't want to see
Even I don't give up
Even I won't give up

You're breaking the surface
So what's left of me?
Tell me when is enough,
Tell me I should give up

It's not the way you move,
It's your words, though they soothe
They're not telling the truth

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up everything?
Tell me now if theres a reason for anything

My heart, it was open
You stepped through the door
It is tearing me up
Giving in, giving up
Left here always hoping
One day there'd be more
Even I don't give up but tell me when is enough

I see the strings you pull
I'm not blind and i'm not fooled
Well you know it's true

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up everything
Tell me now if there's a reason for anything

Well here we are one glance away
I wanted you, you couldn't stay
Every part of me still reaching out, reaching in
And will I be here til the day you found another to back away from
I won't make the same mistake again, no

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up everything
Tell me now if there's a reason for anything

Cause even I don't give up x4

I dont want to notice, I don't want to see
Even I don't give up, even I won't give up

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

mindyyy

This is exactly what I'm going through right now. Maybe no one will read these lyrics and see this post, but I'm going to use it as a way to vent. I can't sleep because of it. This girl got out of a bad relationship with a guy who didn't realize how good he had it with her about 2 months ago. I've been her best friend for about a year but in the last month things changed. We started growing closer and things just felt right. We were practically perfect for each other. But in the past week, I feel her drifting away. She doesn't want to hurt me, so she tries to force herself into liking me. But, as much as I like her and how much it kills me to say this, she's not being honest with herself. At he beginning, maybe it was just infatuation, but for some reason, the draw just isn't there. But, I want whatever makes her happy, and if that means it's not with me so be it. But part of me doesn't want to give up. I could be so much more for this girl if she'd give me the time, but I also can live with the thought that she doesn't like me as much as I like her. I want to try to move forward, but you can't force or schedule love. It's just gotta happen. There aren't hesitations. You fall head over heels on a daily basis. This girl is so indecisive it drives me crazy, she doesn't know what she wants. I made her a promise when things started out that I would prove to her that not all guys are the same. But now I'm fidning it difficult if she doesn't even want to see. She's got me by a string, and I'm struggling to find the courage to just confront her about it. It's not fair to either one of us.

Fuck it though, I'm just going to be honest with her though. Speak from the heart, either way, it'll be closure. Better than not knowing whether to wait or forget. This way I know for sure.
