[Verse 1]
I held on tight, too long
Like a hand on a burned-out wire
You took my kindness
And fed it to the fire
I saw the signs, yeah
All the missed calls, all the blank replies
Still I made excuses
Just to keep you in my life
[Pre-Chorus]
But love ain't a rescue
If only one side runs
I was drowning in your silence
While you were dry as sun
Now my chest feels heavy
Like I carried your load
I can’t keep bleeding
For a heart that’s cold
[Chorus]
Give up on people
When they don’t care
Give up on people
Before you break there
I loved you deep
But you never held me
Give up on people
And save what's left in me
[Verse 2]
I don't hate you, no
That’s the part that hurts the most
I just can’t keep chasing
A ghost in a coat
Every promise bent
Every “soon” turned fake
I was building a home
You were learning how to take
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I see it clear
Through the crack in the glass
If I keep calling your name
I’ll be last, last, last
So I set that hurt down
Like a bag in the rain
Walk away with my pieces
Let you keep the pain
[Chorus]
Give up on people
When they don’t care
Give up on people
Before you break there
I loved you deep
But you never held me
Give up on people
And save what's left in me
[Bridge]
I gave my all
You gave me nothing back
That kind of one-way love
Will leave your soul cracked
So I choose me now
Even if it stings
I’d rather have a scar
Than keep losing wings
[Chorus]
Give up on people
When they don’t care
Give up on people
Before you break there
I loved you deep
But you never held me
Give up on people
And save what's left in me
