I wear the guilt upon my chest 'Cause I feel like I've earned it And keep the bloodstains on my hands To show that I've done this Oh how I wish I could escape that day Take back time and make everything okay But I can't There must be something in my lungs That keeps me from breathing As deep and full as I once could Now my mind starts repeating Oh, the pictures in my head They roll like the movies I shut my eyes to cut the thread But my memory shows no mercy
Still I won't give up now No I won't give up now No I won't give up now No I won't give up now Too many dreams I didn't want to dream Too many night alone where I can't sleep I've got the devil on my back Trying to take home from me But I see Jesus out in front He's reaching back for the lonely Reaching back 'cause he loves me I take his hand because she loved me No I won't give up now No I won't give up now No I won't give up now No I won't give up now
