    Give Up on Me

    Words and Music by Dawn Xiana Moon

    It's a sunny afternoon but my house is cold today
    I can see the clouds,
    They're dancing on the roof but I can't dance that way

    Spent 21 years struggling with the same things
    Each step forward sends me running back
    Resolutions made and broken, promises are spoken
    Why am I so afraid to fail?

    Perfection plays the rally cry
    Will you lift me up or am I condemned to die
    But you said you'd never give up on me
    Even if I do myself

    You said you'd never give up on me
    Even if I do myself

    Walking through the crowds I paint this portrait of invincibility
    Though I hate the shades;
    The colors scream too loud, I'll hide the insecurity

    Spent 21 years struggling with the same things
    Each step forward sends me running back
    Resolutions made and broken, promises are spoken
    Why am I so afraid to fail?

    Perfection plays the rally cry
    Will you lift me up or am I condemned to die
    But you said you'd never give up on me
    Even if I do myself

    You said you'd never give up on me
    Even if I do myself
