Give It Up Now

Lovesick summers got your heart rate up
I’ve been blindsided but never been stuck
So I got restlessness running through each one of my veins
I hear the screen door slam and the air getting heavy
I’m as jumpy as a dog that was tied to the levees
But in the end it’s my heart that gives out when I’m ready to go
So give it, give it up now
It’s not worth it to push and push and push 'til it comes down
Cause I’m bound to hurt more than myself
with the carelessness I’ve thrown around
I was messed up sitting down in the snow
With my shirt thrown off watching the bamboo grow
And I felt more lost than I wanted anybody to know
I came to in the cold and the dark looking for ya
With my eyes so wide, I should’ve saw it coming
But I woke in the morning without learning that the warning was real
So give it, give it up now
It’s not worth it to push and push and push 'til it comes down
Cause I’m bound to hurt more than myself
with the carelessness I’ve thrown around
I don’t wanna end up treading water
Maybe it’s okay to touch the bottom
The promises I make are like milk in the sun
They spill out of me and they spoil when I’m done
Saying what I say just to get what I want and it seems
I am a new moon, emptier than the sand dunes
I wanna be like you, I wanna be full soon
So give it, give it up now
It’s not worth it to push and push and push 'til it comes down
Cause I’m bound to hurt more than myself
with the carelessness I’ve thrown around
I don’t wanna end up treading water
Maybe it’s okay to touch the bottom
