Colony House Won T Give Up Lyrics
Won't Give Up by Colony House
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
