I’m Giving In

[vocal improvisation recommended]

[Verse 1]
This day’s dragging on [pause 2 beats]
and I’m paper-thin  [pause 2 beats]
Leaving all my thoughts in a pile on the table  [pause 2 beats]
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in) [pause 2 beats]
That light in my chest, [pause 2 beats]
flickers again  [pause 2 beats]
Every now and then, [pause 2 beats]
the dark comes to pull me  [pause 2 beats]
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in) [pause 2 beats]



Wherever I walk, 
whatever I say 
You know these restless bones in my body,
just fade away (fade away)
I’m losing my pace,
at the end of the day 
‘Cause every little step,
 feels like it’s twice 
Whatever it takes,
just to stay awake (stay awake)

This day’s dragging on, 
and I’m paper-thin 
Leaving all my thoughts on the table
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
That light in my chest,
flickers again 
Every now and then the dark, 
comes to pull me in
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in)


I once had the fire,  [pause 2 beats]
Oooohhh, I had the speed [pause 2 beats]
I might’ve been reckless,  [pause 2 beats]
but I had somewhere to be (somewhere to be) [pause 2 beats]
Now I move slow, [pause 2 beats]
what happened to me?  [pause 2 beats]
All of this silence, [pause 2 beats]
keeps settling my feet  [pause 2 beats]
Whatever I need, [pause 2 beats]
feels too far to reach (too far to reach) [pause 2 beats]


[Chorus]
This day
dragging on
I’m paper-thin
Leaving all my thoughts on the table
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
That light in my chest,
flickers again
Every now and then the dark comes to pull in 
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in)

 [pause 2 beats]

hhhhmmmm I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
Yeahhh I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
Leaving all my thoughts in a pile on the table
Ohhhhh yes I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
Ah, I’m giving in (ah, I’m giving in)
Mmm, I’m giving in (mmm, I’m giving in)
Every now and then the dark comes to pulls me under the table
I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
Oh, I’m giving in (oh, I’m giving in)
I’m giving in (don’t give in)
Leaving all my thoughts in a pile on the table 
Yeahhhh I’m giving in 
Whoa, I’m giving in (ah, I’m giving in)
I’m giving in (you’re not alone)
Every now and then the dark comes to pull me (pull me under)
I’m giving in (I’m giving in)

This day
dragging on
I’m paper-thin
Leaving all my thoughts on the table
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
That light in my chest,
flickers again
Every now and then the dark comes to pull in 
And I’m giving in (I’m giving in)

Whoa, I’m giving in (ah, I’m giving in)
I’m giving in (you’re not alone)
Every now and then the dark comes to pull me (pull me under)
I’m giving in (I’m giving in)
