[Verse 1]
There I go again
Walking away from a friend
I don't know if I can live without her
But I just have to pretend

[Chorus]
In the beginning
I used to be living
But now I'm just giving
Giving
Giving in

[Verse 2]
The city rises and falls
Like a jest taking breath for a song
I used to wonder what was hidden behind these walls

[Chorus]
In the beginning
I dreamed about living
But now I'm just giving
Giving
Giving in

[Bridge]
I get so tired wondering where I should be going
Leaving a trail of women tired and alone
I try so hard to share a thing I've never known
Sometimes I feel like I believe in a pot of gold

[Outro]
Who am I kidding?
There's no reason I'm winning

There's only giving
Giving
Giving In
That's all that living
Living
Living Is

Oh, giving
Oh, giving
Giving In
